Abstract
A method is used for preparing a product for use in repairing a lesion or defect at a tissue site in a human or animal patient body.

The method further includes pulverizing the frozen tissue and suspending the pulverized tissue in a fluid. The method further includes homogenizing the tissue suspension and precipitating tissue particles from the homogenized tissue suspension. The method further includes re-suspending the precipitated tissue particles and lyophilizing the tissue re-suspension to provide the product to be used in repairing the lesion or defect.
