Improving Lives by Advancing Science, Safety and Innovation

The Science of Tissue Sterilization

Allografts are used in about one million surgical procedures in the U.S. every year. Although the risk of disease transmission is low, RTI’s proprietary, validated sterilization processes reduce this risk even further.
