Just had to google "metallosis in hips not a big issue" and it looks like theyre not running any campaign so we're in the clear for now.
https://www.colgate.com/en-us/oral-health/procedures/fillings/dental-amalgam-a-health-risk
I`ll just leave this here for context
sorry bro didnt click the metallosis links. Figured I'd heard it before and fully understand it and agree. Google seems to not be able to scrape the science direct link. Still better image search than the other ones I sent it through. You can check it here. Probably because it's an imbedded download on science direct. I'm still not holding my breath on a large majority of the US medical community reading it or applying it. They get their info straight from the source. The Zimmer sales reps.

Actually, now that I think about it anecdotally they may or may not be modifying kids to HIV immunity while the west cries out in pain over it so I may have no clue on how they stack up against one another.
That's a cool image on metallosis. Really makes it easy to understand. No boring reading to explain it as elegantly. Had to back trace it. Only relevant use of the image was off a chinese science education website called X-mol but all the publishers accredited seem to be out of University of Illinois college of medicine. Sad the US isnt more like the chinese where we have things like X-mol and sit around and read it. I might be buying into propaganda but anecdotally I hear their medical industry isnt outpacing the US. but if theyre reading the stuff theyre digging and full bore applying it I dont see how theyre not set up to outpace us in this arena. We'll probably have to wait while the industry drags it's feet while in China they`ll probably put you on a firing line like in the baby formula scandals over this.
I wasn't kidding here. It should probably be looked into.
Right now I could kickstart water filters to Africa. Door to door evangelist sale filters to tie into reverse osmosis systems to kill viruses from your water well and send 25% back to SINTX. No research into killing Giardia. Just the info SINTX has provided on antiviral properties and make a killing. It's almost too easy. Somebody go do that.
Zimmer may not have chosen him or calling any shots. This might be bigger than Zimmer and tied into Sandia's robocasters. Guys like that may be operating in the shadows far above Zimmer. Zimmer may just be a player in the game irrelevant to whatever they where attempting to achieve as far back as Australia. Without robocasting Zimmer wouldn't be here on the map as part of this discussion. Ceramatec has nothing to do with Zimmer. Coorstek is a foreign supplier to a shadow giant.
Interesting to note SANDIA has already published for the world to see something that may out perform that .PDF on studying SIALON strength under high temp. That Oprah of robocasters. Has nothing to do with SINTX or medical applications or their patents. Take home is this appears to be a pet project, a kick down, from other areas of research at National Labs. Sonny just happens to be the most qualified to apply this to medical application. To kick it into his arena, whether he's a shill for Zimmer seems debatable and almost irrelevant from my current perspective.
Also should point out it out competes Copper from copper leaching and Silver from anti wear characteristics from hardness on the MOHS scale and price point.
Antiviral nature of SiNi water filters and water vessels. Probably important to the developing world, CDC and WHO from a humanitarian perspective as well as DOD logistics if no one has thought of this yet. SINTX patent application protects this so I think it's safe to post.
Not that I know of. The patent for radiation shielding is barium oxide but I could be wrong.
http://bloxr.com/
My point was the personnel I deem to be key are ceramatec dissolved. Throw in some US spine bank rollers and Sonny Bal. The surgeon engineer. Sonny Bal is just as important In my opinion, but he's not a spook contractor from the engineering division.
Like the Nuclear power plant. Important to fund for DOE, but wait we could strap that to a missile or run a submarine. There's cross over for the tech like Sialon. That's why I think we dont see much of Ashok. You cant tie down a brain like that to something like AMDA, it's a waste of time. He needs to be where he is needed the most on other developing tech arenas.
At this point Either I`m off my meds again or there's a possibility the bears are spooks.
I've said it before and I`ll say it again. If this is a publicly traded company with a 25 million share outstanding.(let's raise that for the bears 1 billion outstanding share) why is ownership never reported? Publicly declared ownership accounts for 100 shares (I`m being dramatic here)WHO OWNS THESE SHARES!? Me and Boston must own a metric ton of shares according to this. Either there's a ton of small share holders(seriously doubt) or the shares are unreported ownership because they are above the rule of law to declare ownership to the SEC. That's pretty easy to do. Anyone can just write them a nasty letter telling them to bugger off according to the rules.
This post is boring dont bother reading:
I might have found a clue.
I posted that file before about high temp. sialon strength testing. What application context? Turbines or Radomes? Now the Australians released their data:

Hardcastle Pty. Ltd., Wembley, WA, Australia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardcastle_%26_Richards
Just about confirmed as these guys.
I wonder if that's potentially effective treatment for things like chrome cobalt, copper or lead poisoning? Letting a 0 ppm water leach away your nutrients and hopefully the metal contaminants in your body while supplementing everything back to you so you don't die of deficiencies?
A 200 ppm water of lead is different than a PPM of calcium magnesium and zinc. So it's a matter of what is in your water as much as how much? Last real water science was performed by the soviet union and still referenced by the WHO talking about desallination plants providing 0 ppm water so I think it might be a lost cause. Not much profit to be had.

I`m going to leave this here because I like the aesthetics looking like a spook document and it really activates my almonds. The rigorous standards have been explained away by the failings of Trabecular metals By a bunch of putz's on about Chrome cobalt modular designs. What if there are higher standards beyond a bunch of putz's?
https://www.va.gov/nac/Vendor/List?sin=&sid=&Description=A-20C&search=Search
Am I searching in the right place here? Perhaps I`m searching in the wrong place. Where is Zimmer(sarcasm)? More pressing is where is Firehouse Medical or FHM? To WHO and WHAT are they supplying of CTL's if there's no listing? I mean we can pour through the entire catalog here if we feel like it. Feels like just another dead end.
>Copper is antibacterial
>Borosilicate is stronger than Soda lime glass
Im glad we're on the same page here.
>Titanium stem Chrome Cobalt head.
Well a hurr to the durr buddy. Can't wait for these guys to come out with 3d printed titanium maxiofacial implants coated with copper to compete in the antibacterial arena.
The only thing that I think that could compete is Bal and Rahaman's work int bioceramics for the application. Remember copper is antibacterial, and I dont think they have to share with SINTX if they took that route. Really wouldnt care if it looked more promising in the research compared to SiNi. Maybe it's all SiNi and SINTX gets payed. Hope they all get a royalty on rediheal too.
First I've heard of it and it will take me awhile to wrap my head around now that I've heard of it. Not sure if it competes against or incorporates SiNi. I`m Kind of still wrapping my brain around that study that treated infection using Valeo. I think selling all of your inventory in a single shot was the best thing you could ask for 2018.
Interesting the time line and certain aspects, such as the timing of the new patent submission. I believe you would have to wait for Firehouse medical's contracts to expire to compete against them. Also I don't think it works that way. I think they have a channel of people they like to deal with and you can go partner with the guys that have the contracts and get added to the brochure. I think we may be only getting half the story of a random cold call out of the blue. If the inventory enters the VA through CTL through Firehouse I don't think anyone has an obligation to alert us to that. We'll just start seeing good quarterlies. I think there's a reason AMDA is adept at keeping their mouth shut. Like they only fly birds on a moonless night on groom lake. It's pretty obvious and I don't need to spell it out for you on my theories; but I think there is a potential for a SINTX future even if they full stop on the pursuit of any biomedical silicon nitride. Had to remind someone of the new patent when they said SINT doesn't own Silicon Nitride. Like Bal said the company is in the best position it has ever seen.
Really excited to be sitting on this huge pile of losses. I'm really hoping we all see it our way some day and if you`re realizing your losses here the potential of playing yourself.
Not suggesting we should return to a one piece design. I've seen larger implants that where modular in dogs titanium stem snap.That one The manufacturer wanted back to have a look at. Just an explanation for why there was no galvanic corrosion of dissimilar metals where the stem met the head after 8 years on that implant. The answer was the stem and head where one piece made out of titanium. Also heavy wear in the PEEK cup. PEEK being softer than metal it makes sense the particulate was pure PEEK. Also no metal in the cup, just a pure PEEK cup that was removed for loosening (actually expecting peek to be bio compatible enough to fuse) Nope its a press fit so the bone most likely retreated to warrant a revision.
What's the best design? I dunno. A hip resurfacing made out of SiNi, something similar to CSC on the fusing portions? lab grown cartilage inserts? You might say lab grow a bone hip implant at that point but I suspect Silicon Nitride would out perform that and natural antibacterial properties.
Is a modular Titanium head on titanium stem going to out perform a chrome cobalt head on a Titanium stem with a PEEK liner in place? I'd say probably. I would love to absolutely berate what ever R word designed that without taking galvanic corrosion of dissimilar metals into consideration. This is absolute basic level stuff. Just no excuse for that to hit the market. He should have approached ONE material engineer with the idea and been laughed at for a week and end of discussion. Really says alot about the world we live in to me. Planet of the Apes comes to mind.
I just wanted to share I googled "Zimmer Biomet catheters"
after reading that. I wasn't always on board catheters. I dismissed the idea. Then I read about Multi drug resistant Candida blood infections and got on board.
Knowing what I know now. If I where going in for spine surgery and my surgeon didn't immediately engage in deep discussion of the pros and cons of Valeo I would within 90% probability walk out. I would expect my surgeon to be more engaged than myself as a rando that bought a penny stock. I fully celebrate CTL running with this ball for wider adoption.
This harks back to something I said months ago about AMDA negotiating a buy out on its knees. I`d say if we gave it enough time, unless CTL is attacked and forced to bankrupt along with SINT I could see a scenario through the AMDA patents, through the necromancer defense, through metallosis and the inferior nature (in my opinion) of metal oxide ceramics, where everyone is forced to negotiate on their knees for medical implants with SINT. I'm reminded that this is not the full scope of what SINT patents now potentially protect. Such as SiNi coatings on toilets SiNi catheters etc. beyond the realm of implants. If I imagine myself as Sonny, the biggest prize is not a buy out and I would be looking to buy time to personally dominate the market. Why give away the brass ring when the brass ring is yours?

Add in the australian human studies as well. We cant forget about those this is bigger than Amedica.
Spinal revision to treat infection:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5832668/
add 1 more study 2 more patients and a novel treatment of infection.

Explain how this guy is connected to the conspiracy to promote Silicon Nitride? Can we discuss the elephant in the room? Who seriously finds watching this go from .15 to 0 the most profitable ticker they can find? Is it the % and lack of volume that's attractive? Delisting erasing naked? Or a conspiracy to sweep it under the rug to prolong business as usual and stifle competition to the tooling that's already in place? I`d say just go ahead and throw it out there. Nobody will find it. It would be hidden under a pile of boring clinical data. Not even a cover story of motivation has been presented here.
I might be doing this maths wrong but it keeps saying I own millions of dollars in investment capital in the SiNi.
So you think Zimmer will buy out for 1,285 a share of SINT? Even if it was 2 to 1 Zimmer, and I`m quoting CL here. That's around $200 per share of SINT common. I might be doing the math wrong here but in that scenario, even paying out 2 to 1 hot off the printing press is .15 cents per dollar of what was originally invested into SiNi. That's not factoring for return on investment either. Meaning in business I'd hope any money invested would accrue value over the time frame. That's my argument for pennies on the dollar if Zimmer picks this up. Using equations from a scenario painted as comical.
What kind of message does that send if the stock pans out if he's buying shares? After engaging in toxic financing? Whoever bought on IPO gets reverse split to death and Sonny walks away with the bag? Either way I would be pissed at Sonny. There's no winning in the minds of whoever bought IPO. It's a snow balls chance that the trend reversed that hard to where IPO holders could profit.
Zimmer picks all of this up for pennies on the dollar of what was invested into it to development up to here. And yeah, a Company had to sit on it's hands while the years of SiNi in spine slowly rolled in and take that risk. Those wheren't years of sitting idly by and collecting a check for absolutely nothing. 400K is the smallest of potatoes relatively.
Investment is an amoral activity toward profit. The idea seems to be "if I`m not doing it someone else would" to justify the amoral aspects of chasing profit. Maximum profit. I see a whole lot more opportunity in activist investment running something similar to a short and distort on things like metallosis or Asbestos in baby powder and riding it down than I do watching SINT go from .15 to even zero. I wonder how or why the market makers dont see it this way?
If you where paying attention you would know about J&J baby powder issue. I've known about it for years and payed little attention. Corn starch is a solid replacement. Yet the big implant co.'s smooth sail right through metallosis lawsuits on the markets with virtually non existent coverage.
Might get ZBH or Sonny to cry out in pain enough to admit any hidden aspects or expose it as a bluff to misdirect attention away from their stock. Even if ZBH is the silent protector I would still regard this as a noble crusade against their bottom line. Even if its just them refusing to admit their problem without a solution in place and forcing them to admit theyre working toward a solution in an attempt to stop the hemmorhaging of their own bottom line. I would say they had it coming.
Definitely an interesting point of view to take on aspects of the scenario non the less.
I too have anecdotal evidence that make me surmise a correlation to implants and Hashimoto's disease. First person I knew that got a knee went on disability and said it made the knee worse. Looking back I`m guessing pain and swelling due to a foreign body response and possibly loosening due to foreign body rejection.
The person I know diagnosed with hashimoto had some hips and knee implants and then was later diagnosed with hashimoto which is attacking the non synthetic joints. Basically just slowly breaking her as a person. To tell you how I really feel..lots of curse words.. Can't see whats right in front of them.. Do I need to pull up the article possibly pointing to mercury allergies in SOME people?
What I'm trying to say is mercury is a heavy metal and it's heavy metal poisoning not an "allergy". You got hit with a rock to not find the idea of an "allergy" evidence we've fully shifted into another dimension of stupidity.
A word on breast implants:
Seems prudent to sell here. Take the tax credit wait 30 days, buy back and pray nothing happens in the interim. Seems kosher. Just not planning on doing it. I bought where I bought. RSI sits at 1 unless I`m not understanding something. It's like my brain hates money. I guess I`m afraid my luck dictates it sky rockets as soon as I let go or I`m extremely lazy. Probably more the latter. Had to look it up and see if gambling losses was tax deductible. My degenerate gambling is Trumps fault it appears. He also gave me bedbugs.
They dont have to hold hands and shout out "material matters" to passers by for me to get the picture. Why dont they go hang out by Schott? Their booth is not near coorstek. BTW, if my memory is correct one of the presentations is on energy storage and ceramics. Think I remember reading through some Ashok patents on this. Bryan and Ashock over at ceramtec now a subsidiary of Coorstek. Probably got tired of hearing about the medical benefits of Silicon Nitride. I`m almost sure it's been presented at the ceramics expo. Next year they should do the oxide radiation shielding. Maybe they can cast it into a ceramic or something to make it fit into the expo. They should really shoot for free booth space as the big draw seems to be on these presentations showing of Ashock's patents, lolz.
Yeah, kind of glad they didnt pick up the 300 sq. ft. seems frivolous when you only need the smaller size booth to declare yourself the only producer of medical grade SiNi and networking in the community. Interesting Schott is there as well. Always thought of them as a high grade borosilicate glass company. Looked it up and discovered Schott ceran polycrystalline pransparent ceramics and I guess pottery glazes since frit aka powdered glass can be a component. Side note.
Been kind of asking myself who goes to a ceramic enthusiast expo and why bother? Seems like it's alot of networking and showcasing. Seems like a good idea for exposure, So I`ll allow it.
no clue on the manufacturer, who performed the initial implant to give me a guess on metallurgy. Could be a chrome cobalt on chrome cobalt stem to head or stainless steel on stainless steel? dissimilar metals in contact with each other causes galvanic corrosion. Don't let them trick you into thinking metals are similar enough. Unless theyre the exact same metallurgy there will be galvanic corrosion in my experience with galvanic corrosion. Examined it myself and it showed no wear on the head and absolute wear on the PEEK. We're probably talking a 10 pound dog that sits on the couch with better weight dispersion due to quadruped.
Talking it over it's personal opinion to give a hip implant vs. ostectomy. Usually heavier dogs go better with a hip implant and lighter dogs with an FHO. This vet. seems to favor the FHO approach. I got a cat with the FHO and he seems to get around fine but likes to lean against me on that side to relax.
Apprehensions I've heard from these guys are squeaking and fracture. Neither of these have any clue how rediheal works. One loves the stuff and must think it's magic, the other must think it's a snake oil(I also need an understanding of how it works). Read the literature on borosilicate bioglass and it explains how it increases healing but might as well be greek as far as how to explain it in simple terms or what mechanism causes it as far as I`m concerned. I plan on digging here to further understand it when I get a chance. Hoping I can develop a mechanism and a way to explain it in layman terms.
I might be reading to far into this. Kyocera and Coorstek want big booths in the front. While Ceramtec doesn't mind showing up in the back. Sintx doesn't mind being in the back..as long as their close to Ceramtec? Will a shouting match ensue about plagiarism of "material matters", then Ceramtec accuses them of stalking their booth locale? Where's the bathrooms there are no bathrooms. You can't sell a booth next to a bathroom they would never be able to recover as a company.
