Bone gel sheet composition and method of manufacture
A bone gel composition consists of cortical bone. The cortical bone is made from cut pieces freeze-dried then ground into particles and demineralized then freeze-dried. A volume of the particles is placed in a solution of sterile water to create a mixture, the water volume being at least twice the particle volume, the mixture is autoclaved under heat and pressure to form a gelatin, the resulting bone gel is formed into sheets having a thickness (t).
1. A bone gel composition consisting of cortical bone made from cut pieces of cortical bone which has been freeze dried, the freeze dried cut pieces are then ground into particles of a size up to 125 microns and then demineralized by the addition of 20 ml of 0.6 HCL to 1 gram of bone, decanted, then addition of plain sterile water at a 20:1 ratio and decanted and stored at −80 degrees C., the ground demineralized particles are then freeze-dried, wherein a volume of the freeze-dried demineralized particles is placed in a solution of only or exclusively sterile water to create a mixture, the water volume being at least twice the volume of the particles, the mixture consisting of sterile water and the freeze dried demineralized particles is autoclaved under heat and pressure to form a gelatin, the resulting bone gel is formed into sheets having a thickness (t) in the range of 1 to 10 mm and formed into a circular, round or a polygonal shape and frozen for later use.
2. The bone gel composition of claim 1 wherein the polygonal shape is a square or rectangle.
3. The bone gel composition of claim 1 wherein the polygonal shape is any other multi-sided shape.
4. The bone gel composition of claim 1 wherein the thickness (t) is in the range of 2 to 3 mm.
5. The bone gel composition of claim 2 wherein the rectangle has a predetermined width and a predetermined length.
6. The bone gel composition of claim 1 wherein the cortical bone has the cut pieces having a width, a length and a thickness in the range of 1 to 4 mm for each width, length and thickness.
