Abstract
A method of preparing a reconstitutable implantable bone putty includes combining a bone matrix derived from human bone and gelatin particulates derived from human tissue at a concentration of the bone matrix by dry weight of 20 to 60 percent to form the reconstitutable implantable bone putty. Preparing the gelatin particulates includes supplying a gelatin precursor of bone or soft tissue from a human, treating the gelatin precursor with phosphoric acid to generate a gelatin-acid mixture, neutralizing the gelatin-acid mixture with an alkali to a pH between 6 and 8 to allow a gelatin-rich solution and a waste solution to separate, removing residual salts from the gelatin-rich solution to obtain purified gelatin, drying the purified gelatin, and reducing the purified gelatin to particulates having a largest dimension less than 300 μm. A method of preparing an implantable bone putty includes adding a reconstitution media to the reconstitutable implantable bone putty.
