摘要:
A process for treating musculoskeletal tissue which comprises contacting musculoskeletal tissue with both an effective amount at least one treating agent selected from the class consisting of antibiotics and disinfectants, and an agent to increase diffusion of the treating agent into the tissue, such as a surfactant or a permeation enhancer. The disinfectant and/or antibiotic function in killing bacteria, vegetative organisms, and viruses (including HIV virus) which may be remaining in the musculoskeletal tissue. A preferred disinfectant is ethanol. Another aspect of the invention is directed to the treatment of musculoskeletal tissue by contacting the musculoskeletal tissue with an effective viricidal amount of a surfactant.
摘要:
The present invention comprises a method for processing allograft bone or tissue, said method comprising the steps of:
(i) subjecting allograft bone or tissue to sterilization, said sterilization sufficient to kill microorganisms but insufficient to cause substantial physical, chemical or biological deterioration of the allograft bone or tissue; and (ii) aseptically processing the sterilized allograft bone or tissue resulting from step (i).
