Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Bone matrix compositions having nanoscale textured surfaces and methods for their production are provided. In some embodiments, bone matrix is prepared for implantation and retains nanoscale textured surfaces. In other embodiments, nanostructures are imparted to bone matrix wherein collagen fibrils on the surface of the bone matrix have been compromised, thus imparting a nanoscale textured surface to the bone matrix. Generally, these methods may be applied to mineralized or demineralized bone including partially or surface demineralized bone.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 .- 17 . (canceled) 18 . A method for producing a demineralized bone matrix composition comprising: providing bone; demineralizing the bone; drying the bone such that collagen fibrils on a surface of the bone are compromised; and adding nanostructures to the bone to provide a nanoscale textured surface. 19 . The method of claim 18 , wherein adding nanostructures to the bone comprises a coating/precipitation process. 20 . The method of claim 18 , wherein adding nanostructures to the bone comprises a phase separation process. 21 . The method of claim 18 , wherein adding nanostructures to the bone comprises an electro spinning process. 22 . The method of claim 18 , wherein adding nanostructures to the bone comprises adding collagen to the bone. 23 . The method of claim 18 , wherein adding nanostructures materials to the bone comprises adding polylactide nanofibers to the bone. 24 . The method of claim 18 , wherein adding nanostructures to the bone comprises adding collagen, polylactide, polycaprolactone, polyglycolide, chitosan, gelatin, or other nanofibrous material to the bone. 25 . The method of claim 18 , wherein the nanofibrous materials include an encapsulated biological active molecule. 26 . The method of claim 18 , further comprising adding extract to the bone.
