Carboxymethylcellulose, notably sodium carboxymethylcellulose or other alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts of carboxymethylcellulose, are employed to control solidification time of compositions comprising one or more bioresorbable ceramics, notably a hydratable calcium sulphate, in order to facilitate preparation of a ready-to-use composition for inserting into the body by injection.

Use of carboxymethylcellulose to control ejectability and solidification time of compositions comprising one or more bioresorbable ceramics

An injector device is disclosed, the injector device comprising an elongated mixing container extending along a first axis, and a piston member slidably positioned in the mixing container. The injector device comprises a mixing device comprising a mixing member, an elongated member parallel to the first axis and a handle member. The piston member comprises a piston head and a first locking arm flexibly connected to the piston head, such that the first locking arm in a first position extends substantially parallel to the elongated member and engages with the mixing device in such a way that the piston member moves in a first direction along the first axis with the mixing device. In a second position, the first locking arm may allow the mixing device to move relative to the mixing container independently of the piston member.
