The invention is directed to bioengineered graft prostheses made from two or more superimposed, chemically bonded layers of processed tissue material prepared from cleaned tissue material derived from animal sources. The bioengineered graft prostheses of the invention are prepared using methods that preserve cell compatibility, strength, and bioremodelability of the processed tissue matrix. The bioengineered graft prostheses are used for implantation, repair, or for use in a mammalian host.

Method of preparing layered graft prostheses

The invention is directed to a class of fiber or strand suspension compositions that may be processed further into viscoelastic pastes or porous solids. The preferred compositions of the invention comprise biologically derived or biologically compatible materials, such as collagen, that can be injected or implanted for tissue augmentation or repair. This invention is also directed to methods of making these compositions and to apparatus that can be used to make the compositions.
