| description | Abstract Background The favorable biological and mechanical properties of the most common components of the placenta, the amnion and chorion, have been explored for regenerative medical indications. The use of the combination of amnion and chorion has also become very popular. But, published data from placental tissues in their final, useable form is lacking. During treatment with membrane product, the tissue is usually sterile, intact and laid on a wound or treatment area. The factors available to the treatment area from the applied product need to be elucidated and presented in a relatable form. Current reporting for eluted growth factor results are typically expressed per milliliter, which is not informative with respect to the area of tissue covered by the actual membrane and may differ among techniques. Methods To address this inconsistency, amnion or amnion/chorion were isolated from human placentas and processed by a proprietary procedure. The final dry, sterilized product was evaluated for structural components and growth factor elution. Growth factors were quantified by multiplex panels and ELISAs and the values normalized to specific area and elution volume of finished product. This information allows extrapolation to all membrane sizes and affords cross‐study comparisons. Results Analysis of membrane supernatants show that dehydrated, sterilized amnion and amnion/chorion elute factors that are conducive to wound healing, which are available to recipient tissues. Importantly, these measurable factors eluted from dehydrated, sterilized membranes can be reported as a function of available factors per square centimeter of tissue. Conclusions The standardized characterization of dehydrated, sterilized amnion and amnion/chorion as delivered to recipient tissues permits understanding and comparison of the products across various graft sizes, types, and eluate volumes. Further, reporting this data as a function of cm2 of dehydrated tissue allows extrapolation by independent scientists and clinicians. |
