  Inductafil
 

What is Inductafil

bullet A unique graft material derived from trabecular bone
that has compressible and elastic, sponge-like properties.
   
bullet Our demineralization process* revolutionizes the handling
properties of bone while maintaining natural growth factors.
   
bullet It has the open, porous structure of cancellous bone while being
also compressible and elastic, with the properties of a sponge.
   
bullet With the ability to be compressed to 1/3 of its original size in order to
fit a space, it then springs back to fill the void without losing its original
strength or shape. Inductafil is a perfect solution for filling a variety of
bone voids.
   
bullet When implanted, it may induce at the locus of the implant (the full
developmental cascade of endochondral bone formation) including
vascularization, mineralization, and bone marrow differentiation.
   
bullet Available in several sizes and may be used with osteogeneic promoters
such as bone marrow or platelet rich plasma.
   
bullet It is processed by a fully accredited American Association of Tissue Banks
(“AATB”) Tissue Bank and Processing Facility complies with FDA 21
CFR 1270 and 1271. Inductafil is comprised of 100% donor tissue
from federally licensed Organ Procurement Organizations (OPO’s)
and other AATB accredited donor sources.
   
Demineralized bone matrices are prepared by acid extraction of allograft bone, resulting inloss of most of the mineralized component but retention ofcollagen and noncollagenous proteins, including growth factors.The efficacy of a demineralized bone matrix (DBM) as a bonegraft substitute or extender may be related to the total amount of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) present, and the ratios of the different BMPs present.BMPs belong to the transforming growth factor (TGF) superfamily of proteins.
