Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for treating or processing tissue, and tissue products made using such systems and methods. The methods involve combining tissue with a processing solution in a processing vessel and applying resonant acoustic energy thereto. In some instances, the tissue is processed in the absence of processing solution. The resonant acoustic energy rapidly agitates the tissue with the processing solution by vibration. The general method provided is broadly applicable to a variety of tissue processing methods, the processing solution and features of the resonant acoustic energy being selected based on the type of tissue to be processed and the nature of the processing to be performed. Exemplary methods include methods of bone demineralization, tissue decellularization, tissue cryopreservation, production of stromal vascular fraction, tissue homogenization, tissue cleansing, and tissue decontamination, and assessment of microbial load.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for treating or processing tissue, and tissue products made using such systems and methods. Also provided are ball mill processing devices and systems useful for processing materials such as tissue. The methods involve combining tissue with or without a processing solution in a processing vessel and applying resonant acoustic energy thereto. The resonant acoustic energy rapidly agitates the tissue with the processing solution by vibration, thereby improving the rate and/or efficiency of processing. The general method provided is broadly applicable to a variety of tissue processing methods, the processing solution and features of the resonant acoustic energy being selected based on the type of tissue to be processed and the nature of the processing to be performed.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provides bone graft compositions, and methods for their use and manufacture. A bone graft composition may include a first amount of demineralized cortical bone that includes non-spherical particles. The composition may further include a second amount of demineralized cancellous bone. The composition may also include a third amount of non-demineralized cortical bone. The demineralized cortical bone, the demineralized cancellous bone, and the non-demineralized cortical bone may be obtained from the same cadaveric donor.

Abstract: Described are permeable pouches for tissue containment and methods for their use and manufacture. Exemplary pouches include a permeable material formed to create a cavity into which tissue graft material can be placed. Tissue graft material may be enclosed within a sealed pouch or within an unsealed pouch.
