By Ted A. Knutson
Washington, Dec. 8 - Osteotech, Inc. said Thursday the Food and Drug Administration has cleared its 510(k) application for Viagraf DBM Paste, one of the company's private label tissue forms, for use as a bone void filler in orthopedic procedures.
In these procedures, Viagraf DBM Paste is intended to be used to fill bone defects in the extremities that may be created surgically or by traumatic injury to the bone.
This is the third approval out of the five 510(k) applications filed with the FDA by Osteotech for its family of DBM products.
Eatontown, N.J.-based Osteotech is a provider of human bone and bone connective tissue for transplantation.
The announcement was made in an 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
