摘要:
This invention includes a novel method for safely, effectively and efficiently pooling of tissues for treatment prior to implantation into a recipient in need thereof. In one embodiment, the method includes perfusion of a porous implant which achieves efficient interpenetration of desired factors into and removal of undesirable factors from the pores of the implant, cleaning of the implant, efficient passivation of the implant (inactivation of pathogens, microorganisms, cells, viruses and the like and reduction in antigenicity thereof), and the novel implant produced by such treatment. The process presents a system wherein the rate of pressure cycling, the fact of pressure cycling, and the amplitude of pressure cycling, results in highly cleaned tissues and other implants for implantation. Target decontamination goals for this process include between about a one (1) to twelve (12) log reduction in bacterial contamination, between about a one (1) to fifteen (15) log reduction in enveloped virus contamination, up to about a five (5) log reduction in non-enveloped virus contamination, between about a two (2) to ten (10) fold reduction in endotoxin, maintenance of implant or graft biologic and biomechanical properties, absence of tissue toxicity due to cleaning solutions used, and reduced implant antigenicity.

Disclosed herein are novel injectable, biocompatible compositions, preferably, comprising a combination of particulate, processed tissue and a carrier. Specifically disclosed are compositions comprising acellular, pulverized dermis combined with at least one glycosaminoglycan and/or gelatin. The subject compositions provide for improved retention of the composition at the site of implantation. Also disclosed are medical applications using the disclosed compositions, such as cosmetic enhancement or filling in of voids due to abnormalities, injuries, surgery, or aging. In addition, kits comprising at least one container of a freeze-dried, particulate tissue and at least one container of a glycosaminoglycan, or crude platelet extract and used thereof as a wound treatment/dressing, are disclosed.
摘要:
A bone paste useful in the orthopedic arts, for example in the repair of non-union fractures, periodontal ridge augmentation, craniofacial surgery, implant fixation, impaction grafting, or any other procedure in which generation of new bone is deemed necessary, is provided by a composition comprising a substantially bioabsorbable osteogenic compound in a gelatin matrix. In various embodiments, the osteogenic compound is selected from (i) demineralized bone matrix (DBM); (ii) bioactive glass ceramic, BIOGLASS®, bioactive ceramic, calcium phosphate ceramic, hydroxyapatite, hydroxyapatite carbonate, corraline hydroxyapatite, calcined bone, tricalcium phosphate, or like material; (iii) bone morphogenetic protein, TGF-β, PDGF, or mixtures thereof, natural or recombinant; and (iv) mixtures of (i)-(iii).
