摘要:
A collagen-bone composition may include bone collagen and bone particles. The collagen may be in the form of a collagen suspension and the bone particles may be demineralized bone particles retained in collagen suspension. The composition may be prepared from pressure and thermal treatment of dry demineralized bone particles contacted with an aqueous medium to produce a viscous gel-like fluid. The fluid may include the collagen extracted from the demineralized bone particles. Addition of particulate bone may be used to increase the consistency of the composition, which may convert it into a paste or putty. The paste or putty may be suitable for ejection from a syringe. The collagen-bone composition may be preserved by freeze-drying or preferably by hypothermic dehydration. On reconstitution with aqueous medium, the preserved material may resume its original shape and properties.

摘要:
A solid implantable bone construct (12) shaped like a cylinder, a cone, or a frustum, for anchoring ligament implants. The bone construct (12) can include a bone component and a biocompatible solid component. The bone component can include particulate bone of between 75 and 600 microns, powdered bone of 75 microns or smaller in size, or both. The biocompatible solid component can include calcium sulfate hemihydrate, a calcium phosphate product, or both. The bone component can be between 5 and 50 wt-% of the construct (12) and the biocompatible solid component can be at least 50 wt-% of the construct (12). Also disclosed is a composite graft (10) comprising a first bone dowel (12) and a ligament (20) and a method of securing one bone to another using the composite graft (10).
摘要:
Provided are procedures and instruments for preparing and transplanting osteochondral allograft plugs to a host bone to repair an articular cartilage defect. An allograft bone plug having a cartilage plate and cancellous bone tissue attached thereto is removed from a donor bone. The allograft plug is further shaped by removing or cutting away cancellous bone tissue to form a cancellous stalk extending from the cartilage plate. The formed cancellous stalk can have any suitable shape including cylindrical, conical, and rectilinear. At the recipient site of the host bone, a cutout is formed corresponding in shape to the allograft plug. The allograft plug is inserted into the cutout such that the cancellous stalk is retained in the host bone and the cartilage plate aligns with the condyle surface of the host bone. Aspects of the invention may also be applicable to preparing and transplanting osteochondral autograft plugs.

A METHOD FOR IMPROVING AND MELLOWING THE TASTE OF ALCOHOLIC DISTILLED LIQUORS AND FOR BRINGING ABOUT A SHIFT IN THE PH VALUE TOWARD THE NEUTRAL RANGE, BY REDUCING THE TOTAL ESTER CONTENT AND TOTAL FUSEL OIL CONTENT, INVOLVES INTIMATELY CONTACTING THE LIQUOR WITH A GASEOUS MIXTURE OF OXYGEN AND CARBON DIOXIDE IN WHICH THE PERCENT OF CARBON DIOXIDE BY VOLUME IS IN THE RANGE FROM ABOUT 5% TO ABOUT 15%.
摘要:
An allogeneic or xenogeneic implant for intervertebral disc replacement includes a body. The body may include one or both of a plurality of grooves or tubular apertures. The body may be formed of partially decalcified bone. The plurality of tubular apertures may be defined within the body and be positioned to allow inflow of decalcifying solutions for rapid and uniform decalcification. After partial decalcification, the body may be pliable and compressible.
