Provided are a method for producing a drawn conjugated fiber, capable of producing a conjugated fiber having a high strength and a thin fineness, and a drawn conjugated fiber. A drawn conjugated fiber is produced by performing a spinning step of obtaining an undrawn fiber having a core-sheath structure in which a core material is a resin containing, as a main component, a crystalline propylene polymer and a sheath material is a resin containing, as a main component, an olefin polymer having a melting point lower than that of the core material, by means of melt-spinning (step S1); and a drawing step of drawing the undrawn fiber (step S2).

A method of producing an osteoinductive bone graft formed of a plurality of electrospun biodegradable fibers is disclosed. The method includes preparing a fibrous scaffold material formed of the plurality of electrospun biodegradable fibers, wherein the plurality of electrospun biodegradable fibers are entangled with each other to form a cotton-wool like structure having inter-fiber spaces forming a microenvironment for cell growth therein, and immersing the fibrous scaffold in a solution containing BMP-2 so that the BMP-2 is bound to the calcium particles exposed on the surface of the fibers. Area of binding site for BMP-2 on calcium particles exposed on a surface of the electrospun biodegradable fibers is adjusted by an amount of the calcium particles contained in the electrospun biodegradable fibers.
