Choosing an Allograft from MTF

• No Tissue Bank Has a Better Safety Record. Period.
  From the procurement of tissue to processing and storage, to a surgeon’s use of an allograft in a recipient’s surgery, the highest safety standards are observed at all times.
• MTF is guided in all aspects of our business by surgeons on our Board of Directors and Medical Board of Trustees, never by shareholders.
  
• MTF does not work with any for-profit tissue recovery agencies. We believe that non-profit control of recovery and distribution are at the heart of ensuring ethical stewardship of the donated gift.
  
• MTF employs an Audit Team whose sole purpose is to audit our recovery partners on a regular basis and ensure compliance.
  
• MTF rejects more donors every year than any other tissue bank because these donors do not meet our strict acceptance criteria.
  
• MTF only uses nurses to perform all of our social and medical history screening.
  
• MTF employs the latest technologies in donor testing such as serological and Nucleic Acid Testing (NAT) to screen out HIV and Hepatitis C.
  
• MTF donors are only released to processing after all charts and records are carefully reviewed by one of our Medical Directors who are all physicians with
  infectious disease or pathology backgrounds.
  
• MTF employs the use of antibiotic soaks, surfactant treatments, and ethanol soaks in processing tissue. All processing steps are validated and performed in Class 10 Clean Rooms to ensure sterility.
• MTF performs final sterility tests on all tissue before it is released to physicians for use.
• MTF employs the TissueTrace® system to ensure traceability of all tissue to the hospital and patient.
