The safety and quality of allograft bio-implants are critical to physicians and their patients. As a leading regenerative medicine company, LifeNet Health has developed a full suite of technologies to ensure these needs are met with every bio-implant we provide. 

LifeNet Health offers four allograft bio-implant technologies every surgeon should take note of:

MATRACELL®

This patented and validated process renders allograft bio-implant tissue acellular; without compromising the biomechanical or desired biochemical properties of an allograft bio-impant surgical application.1

PRESERVON®

Our proprietary, glycerol-based preservation solution allows bio-implants to be stored in a fully hydrated state at ambient temperature.2  This eliminates the need for lengthy rehydration, and saves valuable OR time.

PAD®

Our demineralization technology provides precise bone demineralization to achieve the ideal residual calcium level of 1 to 4%.  This controlled process protects bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) while ensuring optimal osteoinductivity.3

ALLOWASH XG®

For optimal safety, Allowash XG is a 6 step process which addresses bioburden to provide medical implant level of sterility while maintaining the biomechanical and biochemical properties of our allografts.4-5
