Abstract
The disclosure provides implants containing a plurality of particles containing at least one population of viable osteogenic cells adherent to and resident in an osteoconductive matrix or at least one viable population of osteogenic cells caused to be in contact with the osteoconductive matrix; methods of fabricating the implants; and use of the implants in bone repair. The implant further contains an osteoinductive component. An example of an osteoinductive component is a demineralized bone matrix in the form of particles or fibers.
