Curiteva Announces First Surgeries Performed With Novel 3D Printed Porous HA PEEK Technology
Curiteva pioneered and received clearance of the world’s first 3D printed, fully interconnected porous PEEK structure, utilizing internally developed Fused Filament Fabrication.
HUNTSVILLE, Ala., April 14, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Huntsville, AL based technology company, Curiteva announced a limited commercial release utilizing its recently FDA-cleared Inspire Porous PEEK HAFUSE Cervical Interbody System. Curiteva pioneered and received clearance of the world’s first 3D printed, fully interconnected porous PEEK structure, utilizing internally developed Fused Filament Fabrication.
The Inspire platform is manufactured utilizing the Evonik VESTAKEEP® i4 3DF PEEK high-performance polymer on a proprietary, patented 3D printer designed, programmed, and built by Curiteva.
Alex Vaccaro, MD, PhD, president of Philadelphia-based Rothman Orthopedic Institute shared, “I believe structure drives biology and the lattice PEEK architecture enabled by Curiteva’s 3D printing process represents an exciting advancement in spine, orthopedics, and neurosurgical procedures which involve any type of biologic implant.”
Kevin Foley, MD, Chairman of Semmes-Murphey Neurologic and Spine Institute and professor of neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery and biomedical engineering at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center stated, “The Inspire porous PEEK technology checks all of the boxes for an ideal interbody implant: fully interconnected porosity, modulus of elasticity equivalent to cancellous bone, strong biomechanical properties, radiolucency, and a bioactive surface for osseointegration.”
Randy Dryer, MD, Central Texas Spine Institute commented, “Interconnected porosity, pore size distribution, and nano-surface architecture are typically hallmarks of the most effective synthetic allografts. I believe this novel implant enhanced with HAFUSE nano-surface topography incorporates those features and presents an optimal environment for osteoprogenitor cells to move throughout the implant enhancing bone healing (fusion) and reducing risk of subsidence. I’m excited to offer this to my patients.”
“This new technology further demonstrates Curiteva’s commitment to developing and investing in disruptive technologies,” said Todd Reith, Inventor and Vice President of Emerging Technology. “Our unique architecture is the result of years of research and development in 3D printing. As this technology matures, with our internal expertise, we have already contemplated other applications outside of spine and orthopedics.” The company plans a full commercial launch in the United States later this year.

Millennium Trust’s Auto Portability Functionality Ready for Client Testing in June
Network will be open to clients, other portability networks

OAK BROOK, Ill., April 13, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Millennium Trust Company, LLC, a leading provider of health, wealth, retirement, and benefits solutions, today announced it soon will offer optional auto portability functionality for its best-in-class automatic rollover IRA solution.
The functionality is designed to connect to existing and new auto portability networks in order to further the industry’s ongoing efforts to reduce retirement savings leakage and increase access for all. This new, add-on feature will be ready for client testing later this quarter and available to go live in 2024.
“Thousands of recordkeepers, third-party administrators and plan sponsors – including more than half of the top 20 recordkeepers – partner with Millennium Trust to decrease leakage. Our scale and existing technology integrations put us in the unique position to connect the industry, and we knew we could bring this functionality to market quickly,” said Erik Beck, Chief Commercial Officer of Millennium Trust. “We’re offering this optional feature so any clients interested in connecting with our extensive network of retirement industry participants will be able to do so quickly and easily.”
Millennium Trust’s automatic rollover solution has always supported active portability of an IRA owner’s funds when the account owner chooses to do so, and now the company is improving and extending the solution’s portability options. This current initiative is part of Millennium Trust’s more than $30 million commitment to combat retirement savings leakage by reducing friction, expanding access to savings options, and providing more financial education.
Beck said the company is engaged in extensive, ongoing dialogue with clients of all sizes about their needs. Millennium Trust will have the new functionality in place by the end of June 2023, so anyone interested in the feature will be able to first test it and then implement it at no additional cost on Jan. 1, 2024.
Auto portability leverages the core features of Millennium Trust’s automatic rollover solution, helping individuals transfer their retirement savings from a former employer’s retirement plan to an automatic rollover IRA, and then to their new 401(k) or similar employer-sponsored retirement plan unless they elect otherwise. It is an optional add-on to the existing automatic rollover solution, wherein low-balance accounts of non-responsive former employees are rolled over to an IRA to maintain the tax advantages of the retirement savings system and reduce leakage.
The SECURE 2.0 Act of 2022 allows Millennium Trust to offer auto portability services to recordkeepers, third-party administrators and plan sponsors of all sizes. Auto portability is not mandatory. Rather, plan sponsors may choose to add auto portability to their existing automatic rollover solution, whether through Millennium Trust or another provider, thanks to Millennium Trust’s open network approach to this functionality.
“Millennium Trust wants to make a broad impact on keeping money in the retirement system by partnering with recordkeepers, third-party administrators, plan sponsors and others in our industry. We welcome any current and future retirement industry providers to join us in this mission,” Millennium Trust CEO Dan Laszlo said. “No matter the size of the partner, we want to provide a no-cost, fast and easy option to connect so they can offer their clients choice. And we won’t stop there. We will continue to work on health and wealth solutions that help individuals long before and well into retirement.”
About Millennium Trust Company
Millennium Trust Company solves important business challenges through innovative financial wellness solutions that help people plan, save and invest. With more than 5 million clients holding over $55 billion in assets under custody, we are committed to using our decades of expertise and strong partnership with the financial community to empower employers, advisors and institutions to help people achieve short-term and long-term financial security.

Nutrition21 to Showcase Lustriva at NYSCC Supplier’s Day Show
SADDLE BROOK, N.J., April 13, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Nutrition21 LLC will be exhibiting at the New York Society of Cosmetic Chemists (NYSCC) “Suppliers’ Day 2023” show (booth #116) at the Jacob Javitz Convention Center in New York City May 2-3, 2023. The company will be featuring its newest patented beauty-from-within ingredient Lustriva®.
While conventional biotin is often used in beauty supplements, its benefits are vague. Lustriva is a clinically substantiated patented complex that combines Bonded Arginine Silicate with Magnesium Biotinate to promote healthier-looking hair and skin.*
Lustriva is unique in that it significantly increases biotin solubility 40 times greater than that of D-biotin, the form of this vitamin commonly found in beauty products.
In a clinical study1, healthy women who received Lustriva experienced thicker hair as well as a nearly 20% increase in hair growth in as little as three weeks. In the same study, participants also experienced improved skin texture and a 10% reduction in the appearance of wrinkles in just 12 weeks.
According to Catherine Kwik-Uribe, Ph.D., Nutrition21’s Vice President of Scientific and Regulatory Affairs, “There are many options in the market today. The research shows that Lustriva’s unique formulation offers 2-in-1 benefits that you can see and feel.
“Fortunately, the science and technology behind Lustriva offers formulators the assurance they need that the right forms of biotin and silicon make all the difference; the highly bioavailable forms of silicon and biotin can only be found in this product.”
Lustriva is self-affirmed Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) status and can be easily incorporated into a variety of products, including dietary supplements, functional foods, gummies and gels, and ready-to-drink beverages in a small clinical dose of 160 mg.
Information on registering for the event can be found here.
