The present invention provides an in vitro method for determining the osteoinductive potential of a biomaterial. In particular, the method measures the expression of osterix by osteoblast progenitor cells incubated with the biomaterial. In various embodiments, the biomaterial is demineralized bone (DMB) and the progenitor cells are incubated with DMB or proteins extracted from DMB.
