Chinese scientists have developed a breakthrough adhesive that can heal bone fractures in only three minutes. The material, nicknamed bone glue, works by forming a strong chemical bond with bone tissue. Researchers at Tsinghua University reported that the glue not only closes fractures quickly but also promotes natural bone regeneration. Traditional treatments often require weeks of immobilization, but this innovation could significantly reduce recovery times for patients with serious bone injuries. The findings, published in the journal Advanced Functional Materials, open new possibilities for emergency medicine, orthopedic surgery, and battlefield care.
