Allofiber bone fibers are comprised of 100 percent cortical bone and offer putty-like handling and osteoinductivity, and have received early, positive feedback in the operating room. Allofiber does not break apart with irrigation when packed in a surgical site, and its aseptic processing preserves and exposes endogenous growth factors.
