Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 47 words
A composition for the repair of defects in stress-bearing or nonstress-bearing bone, which comprises a matrix consisting essentially of autogeneic bone marrow in admixture with a collagen/mineral preparation containing reconstituted fibrillar atelopeptide collagen and a calcium phosphate mineral component. and sufficient fluid to obtain a malleable preparation.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 47 words
A composition for the repair of defects in stress-bearing or nonstress-bearing bone, which comprises a matrix consisting essentially of autogeneic bone marrow in admixture with a collagen/mineral preparation containing reconstituted fibrillar atelopeptide collagen and a calcium phosphate mineral component. and sufficient fluid to obtain a malleable preparation.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
A composition according to claim 1 wherein the matrix is 5-50% autogeneic bone marrow volume.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
A composition according to claim 1 or 2 wherein the collagen/mineral preparation is 20-70% mineral and 30-80% fibrillar collagen suspension.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
A composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the collagen is supplied as a suspension of 30-70 mg/ml.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
A composition according to any one of the preceding claims wherein the mineral is selected from HA, TCP, or mixtures thereof having bulk densities of 0.5-3.16 g/cc.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 38 words
A method of preparing a matrix consisting essentially of an autogeneic bone marrow, reconstituted fibrillar atelopeptide collagen and a calcium phosphate mineral component which comprises mixing autogeneic bone marrow with a previously prepared mixture of collagen and mineral.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 38 words
A method of preparing a matrix consisting essentially of an autogeneic bone marrow, reconstituted fibrillar atelopeptide collagen and a calcium phosphate mineral component which comprises mixing autogeneic bone marrow with a previously prepared mixture of collagen and mineral.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 36 words
A composition according to any one of claims 1 to 5 for use in a method for effecting the repair of defects in stress-bearing or nonstress-bearing bone, which comprises implanting the composition into a bone defect.
