Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention encompass anti-adhesion wound dressings including patches made from amnion tissue obtained from human birth tissue. Exemplary amnion patches can be fabricated by folding a section of amnion over on itself with the epithelial layer on the outside of the folded patch and the fibroblast layer on the inside of the folded patch. Optionally, individual amnion tissue pieces can be sandwiched together to provide a multi-layer patch. Sufficient pressure is applied to the layered amnion to cause adherence between opposing faces of the fibroblast layers. The pressed fibroblast layers provide mechanical strength to hold the amnion patch together with the epithelial layers on the outsides of the amnion patch.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for treating or processing tissue, and tissue products made using such systems and methods. The methods involve combining tissue with a processing solution in a processing vessel and applying resonant acoustic energy thereto. In some instances, the tissue is processed in the absence of processing solution. The resonant acoustic energy rapidly agitates the tissue with the processing solution by vibration. The general method provided is broadly applicable to a variety of tissue processing methods, the processing solution and features of the resonant acoustic energy being selected based on the type of tissue to be processed and the nature of the processing to be performed. Exemplary methods include methods of bone demineralization, tissue decellularization, tissue cryopreservation, production of stromal vascular fraction, tissue homogenization, tissue cleansing, and tissue decontamination, and assessment of microbial load.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention encompass fascia, fat, and dermis fibrous compositions, and methods for their manufacture and use. In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention encompass methods for obtaining a fascia fiber for use in producing a biotextile. Exemplary methods may include treating a cadaveric fascia tissue with acetone, and obtaining the fascia fibers from the treated fascia tissue. In some cases, methods may include processing the fascia fibers to produce the fibrous fascia biotextile.

Abstract: Described are permeable pouches for tissue containment and methods for their use and manufacture. Exemplary pouches include a permeable material formed to create a cavity into which tissue graft material can be placed. Tissue graft material may be enclosed within a sealed pouch or within an unsealed pouch.

Abstract: Composite grafts including a biocompatible, synthetic scaffold; and a biological tissue component obtained or derived from a deceased donor tissue, wherein the biological tissue component is embedded in the biocompatible, synthetic scaffold, are provided as systems relating thereto. Methods of manufacture and methods of treatment using such grafts are also provided.

Abstract: Flowable matrix compositions and methods of their use and manufacture are provided. Exemplary compositions may include a flowable, syringeable, putty-like form of acellular human dermal matrix. In some cases, compositions may include a moldable acellular collagen extracellular matrix. In use, the matrix compositions can be used to fill or treat skin voids, channel wounds, and other soft tissue deficiencies.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology include a graft for administration at a treatment site of a patient. The graft may include a human cadaveric bone material bonded together with a polymeric binder. The human cadaveric bone material may include demineralized bone particles. The demineralized bone particles may have an average diameter less than 1.1 mm, less than 750 ?m, less than 500 ?m, or less than 250 ?m. The human cadaveric bone material may include non-demineralized bone, cancellous bone, and/or cortical bone in embodiments. In some embodiments, bone from animals other than humans may be used, and the patient may be an animal other than a human.

Abstract: Embodiments of the technology may involve a method of processing the human donor tissue for administration to a recipient. This method may include the step of contacting the human donor tissue with a backing layer, where the human donor tissue and the backing layer contain a saline solution. This saline solution may include a solvent and a disassociated salt. The method may further include evaporating a portion of the solvent from a surface of the backing layer. The evaporation of the solvent may move a portion of the disassociated salt from the donor tissue to the backing layer. This process may then result in a tissue that is mostly dry and free of salt crystals.

The precipitated protein can be stored for a significant time in the concentrated mixture, such as intermediate between processing stages during manufacture operations.
