A cohesive bone composition is made from a moldable bone composition intermixed with a bone gel composition. The cohesive bone composition is made from human cadaver bone. A fluid can be added, the fluid may also be laden with cells.

An implant for bone-graft insertedly placed in a procedure pore, the implant includes a bone organism having a lump shape, and a protective film coated to cover an overall outer surface of the bone organism as to form an absorbent membrane. After the implant is insertedly placed in the procedure pore, the absorbent member is absorbed into a body and dissolved as time passes. The implant for the bone-graft may be applied to diverse procedures performed for hone-graft not only in a dental surgery but also in orthopedics or a plastic surgery.

A malleable demineralized bone composition consists of cortical bone made from a first portion and a second portion. The first portion and second portion of cortical bone is made from cut pieces freeze dried then ground into particles and demineralized then freeze-dried. A volume of the second portion is placed in a solution of sterile water to create a mixture, the water volume being seven times the volume of the second portion, the mixture is autoclaved under heat and pressure to form a gelatin, and the first portion is mixed with the gelatin to form a malleable putty or paste.

A bone implant comprising cancellous bone that is essentially free of blood cells, and which has been treated with at least one loosening agent, such as collagenase or a digestive enzyme, for a time and at a concentration to loosen the osteogenic cells in the cancellous bone matrix. The osteogenic cells in the matrix are viable cells. The treatment of the cancellous bone with at least one loosening agent enables the osteogenic cells to be more available for carrying out their osteogenic function and to provide for an increased rate of bone formation. Such implant also may include demineralized bone, such as demineralized cortical bone, which enhances the bone regenerative capacity of the cancellous bone.

Disclosed are bone marrow stromal cell derived extracellular matrix protein extracts that are useful for the expansion and proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells and for various therapeutic applications.

A method of enhancing the binding of growth factors and cell cultures to a demineralized allograft bone material which includes applying ex vivo an effective quantity of an ionic force change agent to at least a portion of the surface of a demineralized allograft bone material to produce a binding-sensitized demineralized allograft bone material and implanting the binding-sensitized demineralized allograft bone material into a host bone. The ionic force change agent may include at least one of enzymes, pressure, chemicals, heat, sheer force, oxygen plasma, supercritical nitrogen, supercritical carbon, supercritical water or a combination thereof. A molecule, a cell culture, or a combination thereof is administered to the binding-sensitized demineralized allograft bone material.

The invention relates to methods of preparing a bone matrix solution, a bone matrix implant, and variants thereof. The invention also relates to methods of cell culture using the same. The invention further relates to bone matrix scaffolds comprising one or more bone matrix nanofibers, methods of preparing, and methods of use thereof. The invention also relates to methods of culturing cells and promoting differentiation of stem cells using the same.

A bone implant comprising cancellous bone that is essentially free of blood cells, and which has been treated with at least a loosening agent, such as collagenase and/or a digestive enzyme, for a time and at a concentration to loosen the osteogenic cells in the cancellous bone matrix.

The treatment of the cancellous bone with at least one loosening agent enables the osteogenic cells to be more available for carrying out their osteogenic function and to provide for an increased rate of bone formation.

Provided herein are bone marrow stem cell compositions and implants and methods of making and using the same.

A delivery system comprising an agent and a foldable covering including a first surface disposed with the agent and a second surface connectable with the first surface to intra-operatively dispose the covering in a selected configuration.
