Bacterin Announces New Demineralized Bone Matrix Constructs for Spine Applications
BELGRADE, MT--(BUSINESS WIRE) October 29, 2014 -- Bacterin International Holdings, Inc. (NYSE MKT: BONE), a leader in the development of bone graft material and coatings for medical applications, today announced the release of two unique new products for use in spinal procedures, 3Demin Boats and 3Demin Strips. These products complement Bacterins existing bone graft portfolio as our new technology allows us to provide larger constructs suitable for multi-level spinal fusion procedures.
The 3Demin Boats and 3Demin Strips, as well as 3Demin Cortical Fibers, will compete in the domestic bone replacement market, a $1.7 billion annual business segment (Source: BioMedGPS, LLC). Bacterins CEO Dan Goldberger stated, The 3Demin product family was strategically designed to address the adult deformity and multi-level spine fusion market segment. These products complement our current DBM product offerings allowing us to offer a more comprehensive product portfolio to new and existing customers. With these product launches, Bacterin has returned to its roots as an innovator in bone allograft and I want to congratulate the entire team on this accomplishment.
The 3Demin family of osteoinductive, demineralized bone allografts is part of an ongoing expansion of Bacterins orthopedic product offering. 3Demin Boats and 3Demin Strips can be used as stand-alone bone grafts or in combination with autologous bone in a variety of spinal fusion applications. Bacterin has optimized the processing and consequent handling characteristics of cortical bone to facilitate ease of use during surgery while maintaining maximum biological performance and providing a sterility assurance level (SAL) 10-6.
