Deep-frozen morselized human bone grafts showed osteoconductivity and osteoinductivity when implanted into tibial window defects of nude rats. The osteoconductivity was assessed by measuring the total area of newly formed bone bridged by the implanted bone grafts in the entire defect area. The osteoinductivity was evidenced by the presence of active osteoblast-like cells and new bone formation around the implanted bone grafts, which were surrounded by soft tissues distant from the host cortex. Gamma irradiation at the doses of 15 or 25 kGray reduced the osteoconductivity (ANOVA and LSD tests, p<0.05) at 3 weeks post operation. The 25 kGray group had a significantly lower level of new bone formation compared with the 0 and 15 kGray groups. The evidences of osteoinductivity were only noted in the 0 and 15 kGray groups. Our data indicate that 25 kGray gamma irradiation reduces the osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties of the morselized human bone graft.

Background:Autoclaving, heat, irradiation or chemical detergents are used to disinfect autografts, allografts and biomaterials for tissue reconstruction. These methods are often associated with deterioration of mechanical, physical, and biological properties of the bone grafts and synthetic implants. High hydrostatic pressure has been proposed as a novel method preserving biomechanical and biological properties of bone, tendon and cartilage. This is the first study to assess the inactivation of clinically relevant bacteria on biomaterials and human bone by high hydrostatic pressure.Methods:Bacterial suspensions ofStaphylococcus aureus,Pseudomonas aeruginosaandEnterococcus faecium, implants covered with infected blood, human bone infectedin vitro, and biopsies of patients with chronic osteomyelitis were subjected to different protocols of high hydrostatic pressure up to 600 MPa. Bacterial survival after high hydrostatic pressure treatment was determined and compared with bacterial growth in untreated controls.Results:S. aureusandP. aeruginosain suspension were completely inactivated by high hydrostatic pressure (> 5log levels), whereasE. faeciumshowed barotolerance up to 600 MPa. Blood and adherence to metal implants did not significantly alter inactivation of bacteria, and complete disinfection was achieved with barotolerant bacteria (S. aureusandP. aeruginosa). However, osteoarthritic bone demonstrated a non-homogeneous baroprotective effect, with single bone samples resistant to treatment resulting in unaltered bacterial growth, and complete disinfection of artificially infected bone specimens was achieved in 66% forS. aureus, 60% forP. aeruginosaand 0% forE. faecium. Human bone samples of patients with chronic osteomyelitis could be completely disinfected in 2 of 37 cases.Conclusion:High hydrostatic pressure offers new perspectives for disinfection of sensitive biomaterials and bone grafts, and contamination by blood did not significantly affect bacterial inactivation rates. However, a significant baroprotective effect was demonstrated in bone. Effectiveness is currently limited to colonization and / or infection with barosensitive micro-organisms.
