Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 85 words
A process for coating the pores in a porous calcium phosphate mineral material with collagen, which process comprises pumping a collagen dispersion through the mineral material, which material has been placed in a mold, said mold having an inlet port and an outlet port, said ports being capable of permitting the flow of collagen dispersion but preventing the flow of said mineral material, wherein said pumping is conducted by pumping said dispersion into the inlet port through said porous material and out the outlet port.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 85 words
A process for coating the pores in a porous calcium phosphate mineral material with collagen, which process comprises pumping a collagen dispersion through the mineral material, which material has been placed in a mold, said mold having an inlet port and an outlet port, said ports being capable of permitting the flow of collagen dispersion but preventing the flow of said mineral material, wherein said pumping is conducted by pumping said dispersion into the inlet port through said porous material and out the outlet port.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the mineral material is a solid porous block.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the mineral material is a powder.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the collagen dispersion is a dispersion containing 35 mg/ml-65 mg/ml reconstituted fibrillar atelopeptide collagen in saline.
