There is disclosed a system for cleaning and disinfecting allograft material. In an embodiment, the system includes a sterile bag and a motorized paddle blender. The sterile bag having an outer wall configured to withstand blending forces, at least one paddle contact section, and an allograft retaining section separate from the at least one paddle contact section. The motorized paddle blender having at least one paddle configured to apply blending forces on the sterile bag on the at least one paddle contact area, a motorized portion to actuate the at least one paddle, and a door component configured to hold the sterile bag adjacent the at least one paddle. The at least one paddle and the allograft retaining section are configured to prevent the paddle from contacting the allograft material when the blending forces are applied on the sterile bag on the at least one paddle contact area.

1. A system for cleaning and disinfecting allograft material, the system comprising: a sterile bag having an outer wall configured to withstand blending forces, a pair of paddle contact sections, and an allograft retaining section separate from the paddle contact sections, an internal screen defining the allograft retaining section at a central location between the pair of paddle contact sections, the central location defined by the internal screen configured to retain the allograft material between the pair of paddle contact sections to prevent tissue pummeling and to allow turbulent fluid flow therethrough; anda motorized paddle blender having at least two paddles configured to apply blending forces on the sterile bag on the pair of paddle contact sections, a motorized portion to actuate the at least two paddles, and a door component configured to hold the sterile bag adjacent the at least two paddles, wherein the at least two paddles and the allograft retaining section are configured to prevent the at least two paddles from contacting the allograft material when the blending forces are applied on the sterile bag on the at least two paddles contact sections;wherein the door component, the at least two paddles, the pair of paddle contact sections, and the central location of the allograft retaining section are configured with respect to one another to locate the blending forces onto the sterile bag on the pair of paddle contact sections at positions away from the central location of the allograft retaining section so as to in turn provide a non-contact area at the central location to prevent application of the blending forces to the allograft material. 2. A system in accordance with claim 1, wherein the sterile bag is a paddle blender bag having modifications to provide the allograft retaining section separate from the at least one paddle contact section. 3. A system in accordance with claim 1, wherein the motorized paddle blender includes two paddles separated by a given distance to apply blending forces on the sterile bag at two paddle contact sections, and the allograft retaining section having a width less than the given distance separating the two paddles so as to allow the allograft retaining section to retain the allograft material between the two paddle contact sections corresponding to the two paddles. 4. A system in accordance with claim 1, wherein the internal screen is heat-sealed into the center portion of the sterile bag so as to prevent the allograft material from drifting into the pair of paddle contact sections and so as to prevent the at least two paddles from pummeling the allograft material. 5. A system in accordance with claim 1, wherein the internal screen provides open pores toward each of the pair of paddle contact sections, further comprising a fluid disposed in the sterile bag, and wherein the internal screen defining the central location between the pair of paddle contact sections is configured to allow fluid flow from one of pair of paddle contact sections, through the central location, and to the other one of the pair of paddle contact sections. 6. A system in accordance with claim 1, further comprising an inlet port integrated into the sterile bag and an outlet port integrated into the sterile bag, wherein the inlet port is configured to allow addition of a fluid from the sterile bag, and wherein the outlet port is configured to allow removal of the fluid from the sterile bag. 7. A system for cleaning and disinfecting allograft material, the system comprising: a sterile bag having an outer wall configured to withstand blending forces, at least one paddle contact section, and an allograft retaining section separate from the at least one paddle contact section, an internal screen defining the allograft retaining section at a location adjacent to the at least one paddle contact section, the location defined by the internal screen configured to retain the allograft material adjacent to paddle contact section to prevent tissue pummeling and to allow turbulent fluid flow therethrough; anda motorized paddle blender having at least one paddle configured to apply blending forces on the sterile bag on the at least one paddle contact section, a motorized portion to actuate the at least one paddle, and a door component configured to hold the sterile bag adjacent the at least one paddle, wherein the at least one paddle and the allograft retaining section are configured to prevent the paddle from contacting the allograft material when the blending forces are applied on the sterile bag on the at least one paddle contact section;wherein the door component, the at least one paddle, the paddle contact section, and the location of the allograft material and allograft retaining section are configured with respect to one another to locate the blending forces onto the sterile bag on the paddle contact section at a position away from the allograft retaining section so as to in turn provide a non-contact area at the allograft retaining section to prevent application of the blending forces to the allograft material. 8. A system in accordance with claim 7, wherein the sterile bag is a paddle blender bag having modifications to provide the allograft retaining section separate from the at least one paddle contact section. 9. A system in accordance with claim 7, wherein the motorized paddle blender includes two paddles separated by a given distance to apply blending forces on the sterile bag at two paddle contact sections, and the allograft retaining section having a width less than the given distance separating the two paddles so as to allow the allograft retaining section to retain the allograft material between the two paddle contact sections corresponding to the two paddles. 10. A system in accordance with claim 7, wherein the internal screen is heat-sealed into the center portion of the sterile bag so as to prevent the allograft material from drifting into the pair of paddle contact sections and so as to prevent the at least two paddles from pummeling the allograft material. 11. A system in accordance with claim 7, wherein the internal screen provides open pores toward each of the pair of paddle contact sections, further comprising a fluid disposed in the sterile bag, and wherein the internal screen defining the central location between the pair of paddle contact sections is configured to allow fluid flow from one of pair of paddle contact sections, through the central location, and to the other one of the pair of paddle contact sections. 12. A system in accordance with claim 7, further comprising an inlet port integrated into the sterile bag and an outlet port integrated into the sterile bag, wherein the inlet port is configured to allow addition of a fluid from the sterile bag, and wherein the outlet port is configured to allow removal of the fluid from the sterile bag.
