The invention relates to a process for producing a bone-regeneration material. According to the method, a bio-compatible, open-pored body is exposed to a vacuum and osteoinductive and/or osteogenic substances are absorbed into the pores of the body, for example by means of a vacuum generated therein. It is thus possible to produce a bone-regeneration material, which contains osteoinductive and/or osteogenic substances in the pores of the bio-compatible body, said substances acting as a network structure for new somatic cells that are to grow into the porous body.

1. A process for the production of a bone regeneration material which contains a drawable substance that includes (i) at least one osteoinductive substance, (ii) at least one osteogenic substance, or (iii) at least one osteoinductive substance and at least one osteogenic substance, the process being
1. A process for the production of a bone regeneration material which contains a drawable substance that includes (i) at least one osteoinductive substance, (ii) at least one osteogenic substance, or (iii) at least one osteoinductive substance and at least one osteogenic substance, the process being performed with a syringe with a hollow cylinder, a piston, and an air tight seal and comprising: (a) housing a biocompatible, interconnected open-pore body in the hollow cylinder of the syringe;(b) forming a perforation in the air tight seal;(c) drawing the drawable substance through the perforation;(d) after drawing the drawable substance through the perforation, sealing the perforation; and(e) after sealing the perforation, drawing the drawable substance into pores of the biocompatible, interconnected open-pore body by further displacing the piston to create negative pressure within the hollow cylinder of the syringe. 2. The process according to claim 1, wherein the osteogenic substance is somatic cells in blood or an aqueous suspension, and the somatic cells are chosen from the group consisting of: (a) autologous bone marrow,(b) separated, concentrated cells from autologous bone marrow,(c) cultivated autologous stem cells,(d) differentiated autologous stem cells, and(e) mesenchymal cells. 3. The process according to claim 1, wherein the osteoinductive substance is contained in a body-compatible liquid. 4. The process according to claim 1, wherein the osteogenic substance is suspended in an aqueous solution. 5. The process according to claim 1, wherein the osteogenic substance is present in the form of somatic cells in flowable form, and the somatic cells are chosen from the group consisting of: (a) blood,(b) blood components,(c) bone marrow, and(d) bone cells. 6. The process according to claim 1, wherein the osteogenic substance is somatic cells of an autologous nature. 7. The process according to claim 1, wherein the osteoinductive substance is chosen from the group consisting of: (a) synthetic growth factors,(b) recombinant growth factors,(c) β growth factor (TGF-β),(d) FGF-2 (fibroblast growth factor),(e) natural or synthetic peptides,(f) platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF),(g) insulin-like growth factor (IGF),(h) fibrin as end product of blood coagulation, and(i) synthetic fibrin. 8. A method, comprising: placing a biocompatible open-pore body in a chamber of a syringe;drawing at least one flowable substance into the chamber through a needle inserted through a membrane;removing the needle from the membrane to form an air tight seal; andafter sealing the membrane, continuing to draw a syringe piston to produce a level of vacuum that is maintained within the chamber to draw the flowable substance into pores of the biocompatible open-pore body. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the needle is in a removable adapter. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein the removable adapter is configured to couple to a cannula system chosen from a group consisting of a hub connection system, an injection needle, a catheter, and a butterfly. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein a removable head part including the membrane is coupled between the chamber and the removable adapter. 12. The method of claim 11, further including removing the removable head part after drawing the flowable substance into pores of the biocompatible open-pore body to provide an exit pathway, and expelling the biocompatible open-pore body through the exit pathway. 13. The method of claim 1 wherein step (f) further comprises expelling air from the biocompatible, interconnected open-pore body. 14. A method, comprising: placing a biocompatible resorbable open-pore body in a chamber of a hollow cylinder;coupling a membrane to said hollow cylinder to form an airtight seal;inserting a cannula through said membrane;drawing a flowable substance into the chamber through the cannula;removing the cannula from the membrane to reform the air tight seal; andafter removing the cannula from the membrane to reform the air tight seal, producing and maintaining a level of vacuum within the chamber to draw the at least one flowable substance into pores of the biocompatible resorbable open-pore body and expel air from the biocompatible open-pre body as the flowable substance is drawn into the biocompatible resorbable open-pore body. 15. The method of claim 14, wherein coupling the membrane to the hollow cylinder includes attaching a head part to the hollow cylinder, said head part including the membrane. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the head part has a first portion engageable with the hollow cylinder and a second portion engageable with an adapter, wherein the first portion of the head part has a diameter larger than a diameter of the second portion of the head part. 17. The method of claim 15, wherein inserting the cannula through the membrane includes attaching an adapter to the head part, the adapter including the cannula. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein the adapter has a first portion engageable with the head part and a second portion engageable with a Luer system, wherein the first portion of the adapter has a diameter larger than a diameter of the second portion of the adapter. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein the Luer system includes one or more of an injection needle, a catheter and a butterfly needle.
