  • Tissue-specific basement membrane gels
    Publication number: 20070190165
    Abstract: Methods are provided for basement membrane extraction and gellation whereby a biologically active, stable, three dimensional gel can be induced within five minutes or less with basement membrane components from substantially any tissue selected by the preparer. The three dimensional gel can further be substantially free of cellular contaminants. Thus, a wide range of diagnostic and therapeutic uses for such gels can be made available.
