Biomaterials for tissue regeneration and engineering applications and methods of making and use thereof are described, as well as constructs and kits derived from the biomaterials. The biomaterials can be derived from extracellular matrix and functionalized to make them crosslinkable and amenable to tuning of their material properties.

There is disclosed a tool having a set of features for forming a domed acellular dermal matrix (ADM) graft. An acellular dermal matrix (ADM) graft product includes an ADM graft derived from full-thickness skin, with a pre-formed domed shape having a mesh pattern formed therein. In an embodiment, the set of features include a shaping tool feature and a scoring tool feature. The shaping tool feature has a shaping portion configured to shape a dome shaped ADM graft. The scoring tool feature has a scoring portion configured to impart a desired mesh pattern into the domed shaped ADM graft. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

This invention is directed to polymer-permeated grafts, including those which contain an active which provide for the controlled or sustained release thereof, and methods of making and using the same.

A fibrous birth tissue composition fabricated from placental tissue is provided. Methods of processing a mammal's placental tissue to form a fibrous birth tissue composition are provided. Regenerative methods are also provided.

Compositions including a first soft tissue-derived matrix and a second soft tissue-derived matrix are provided, as well as methods of making such compositions. In some embodiments, the composition comprises delipidated, decellularized adipose tissue-derived matrix and delipidated, decellularized fascial tissue-derived matrix, which may be combined in various proportions. Such adipose-fascia matrix compositions provide improved volume retention when implanted into a patient. The composition may further include exogenous cells or other substances, and/or a carrier. The composition is suitable for use in plastic surgery procedures, including reconstructive or cosmetic surgery procedures, as well as procedures for wound treatment and tissue regeneration. The methods for making the compositions may involve separation of first and second soft tissues from one another, followed by performing one or more treatments on the separated soft tissues, then combining the treated soft tissues and, optionally, performing one or more additional treatments on the combined soft tissues.

The invention relates to a medical device comprising at least one acellular biological matrix and at least one polymer, as well as to a method for manufacturing same and to the use thereof as a medical device or as an implant.

A technology of 3D printing integration of hard materials and cells, a preparation of bone-repair functional module with osteogenic microenvironment, bone organoid method and the application of quick repair of bone defects are provided. A preparation method of biological microenvironmental factors as independent osteogenic factors is further provided. The present integrated 3D printing technology realizes 3D printing of cells and hard materials synchronously by adjusting the temperature, so as to build a real sense of biomimetic bone tissue, which can be customized according to the specific defects and clinical needs of patients. In the present bone-repair functional module, the cells have high survival rate and proliferation activity on the surface of hard materials, and realize osteogenic differentiation and mineralization; after implantation, it has the dual metabolic functions of bone formation and bone resorption, promoting vascular and neurogenesis, improving elastic modulus and reducing stress shielding.

A system and method for tissue fabrication involves the use of charge manipulation between two biomaterials to generate a shrinking response, which effectively enhances the resolution of bioprinted hydrogels. The charge manipulation can be utilized to generate tissue engineered thin, membranous tissues, such as the periosteum, which is approximately one hundred microns in thickness. Thin membranous tissues in the body also have relatively complex anatomies containing multiple cell populations, and no prior strategies allow for the effective and biomimetic generation of these tissues, which can have significant impact on tissue regeneration.

A bone gel composition consists of cortical bone. The cortical bone is made from cut pieces freeze-dried then ground into particles and demineralized then freeze-dried. A volume of the particles is placed in a solution of sterile water to create a mixture, the water volume being at least twice the particle volume, the mixture is autoclaved under heat and pressure to form a gelatin, the resulting bone gel is formed into sheets having a thickness (t).

A method of coating a bone material in a container is provided. The method comprising adding the bone material to an opening of the container and sealing the opening of the container so that the bone material is disposed within an interior of the container; adding a liquid coating material to the interior of the container through an inlet of the container so as to coat at least a portion of the bone material with the liquid coating material; removing any excess coating material from the container from the interior through an outlet of the container; and removing the coated bone material from the container. A system of coating bone material under a sterilized environment is also provided.
