Abstract

An improved composition for inducing bone growth is provided that is a mixture of DBM and a perfluorocarbon oxygen carrier. Injection/implantation of a composition of DBM and a perfluorocarbon results in enhancement of bone formation.

Claims (25)

1. A non-emulsified composition, comprising a mixture of demineralized bone particles coated with a perfluorocarbon, wherein the perfluorocarbon is at or between about 32 to about 48% by weight based on the total weight of the perfluorocarbon and the DBM combined.

2. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the perfluorocarbon has a boiling point at or within the range of about 50° C. to about 250° C.

3. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the perfluorocarbon has a boiling point at or within the range of about 140° C. to about 145° C.

4. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the perfluorocarbon is selected from the group consisting of perfluorodecalin, perfluorohexane, perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene, perfluorobutylamine (PFTBA), perfluorooctylbromide (PFOB), perfluoro-n-octane, octafluoropropane, perfluorodichlorooctane, perfluorodecane, perfluorotripropylamine, perfluorotrimethylcyclohexane, perfluoromethyladamantane, perfluorodimethyladamantane, perfluoromethyldecaline, perfluorofluorene, diphenyldimethylsiloxane, hydrogen-rich monohydroperfluorooctane, alumina-treated perfluorooctane, and mixtures thereof.

5. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the perfluorocarbon is perfluorodecalin, perfluorohexane, perfluorobutylamine, perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene, or mixtures thereof.

6. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the perfluorocarbon is perfluorodecalin.

7. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the DBM is in the form of powder, granules, putty, gel, strips, paste, sheets, circular grafts, fibers, or matrices.

8. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the DBM is in the form of powder, granules or fibers.

9. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 used for enhancing bone growth.

10. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the DBM is in the form of powder, granules, putty, gel, strips, paste, sheets, circular grafts, fibers, or matrices.

11. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , wherein the perfluorocarbon is perfluorodecalin, perfluorohexane, perfluorobutylamine, perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene, or combinations thereof.

12. The non-emulsified composition of claim 1 , further comprising a handling agent.

13. The non-emulsified composition of claim 12 , wherein the handling agent is selected from the group consisting of saline, glycerols, polyoxamers, lecithins, and combinations thereof.

14. A method of making a non-emulsified composition for bone growth, comprising:

coating demineralized bone matrix (DBM) particles with a perfluorocarbon to form the non-emulsified composition, the perfluorocarbon being present in the non-emulsified composition in an amount of about 32% to about 48% by weight based on the total weight of the perfluorcarbon and the DBM particles.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the perfluorocarbon has a boiling point at or within the range of about 50° C. to about 250° C.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the perfluorocarbon is selected from the group consisting of perfluorodecalin, perfluorohexane, perfluoroperhydrophenanthrene, perfluorobutylamine (PFTBA), perfluorooctylbromide (PFOB), perfluoro-n-octane, octafluoropropane, perfluorodichlorooctane, perfluorodecane, perfluorotripropylamine, perfluorotrimethylcyclohexane, perfluoromethyladamantane, perfluorodimethyladamantane, perfluoromethyldecaline, perfluorofluorene, diphenyldimethylsiloxane, hydrogen-rich monohydroperfluorooctane, alumina-treated perfluorooctane, and mixtures thereof.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the perfluorocarbon is perfluorodecalin.

18. The method of claim 14 , wherein DBM is in the form of powder, granules, putty, gel, strips, paste, sheets, circular grafts, fibers, or matrices.

19. The method of claim 14 , wherein the DBM is in the form of powder.

20. The method of claim 14 , further comprising adding a handling agent to the mixture.

21. The method of claim 20 , wherein the handling agent is selected from the group consisting of saline, glycerols, polyoxamers, lecithins, and combinations thereof.

22. A method of making a mixture for bone growth, comprising:

adding a perfluorocarbon directly to demineralized bone matrix (DBM) particles; and

mixing to form a mixture of DBM particles coated with the perfluorocarbon, wherein the perfluorocarbon is at or between about 32 to about 48% by weight based on the total weight of the perfluorocarbon and the DBM combined.
