Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing a contact lens-shaped amniotic dressing and a contact lens-shaped amniotic dressing prepared therefrom for treating ocular surface diseases, which does not require the use of sutures or an adhesion material. The inventive contact lens-shaped amniotic dressing is capable of solving the problems associated with suturing an amniotic membrane, e.g., highly delicate surgical techniques of suturing, long surgery time, stitch abscess, granuloma formation, tissue necrosis, and discomfort of patients; and the problems associated with the use of a support, e.g., the elimination of the support by eye blinking, breaking of the support, and discomfort.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a biological implantation material and method of preparing the same, which comprises the steps of: (i) treating a tissue derived from animal or human with alcohol; (ii) contacting the said tissue with an enzyme selected from the group consisting of dispase, DNAse, RNAse and pepsin in a solvent; (iii) treating the tissue obtained in step (ii) with alkaline solution; and (iv) treating the tissue obtained in step (iii) with acid solution.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a dermal substitute comprising the biodegradable polymer such as collagen and the biomaterial such as amnion, the preparation method and the use thereof. Specifically, the present invention provides with an amnion-collagen sponge complex structure prepared by attaching, inserting or incorporating an amnion obtained from placenta to/in collagen. Inventive dermal substitute can be applied to surgery and wound requiring skin graft, for example, severe burns such as second-degree burn, without rejection by immune system. Further, inventive dermal substitute with amnion instead of silicone membrane has several advantages, such as better biocompatibility, anti-inflammatory activity and promoting activity of wound healing and commercial utilization as basement membrane. Also, inventive complex structure can be used as the basic matrix of bio-artificial skin for culturing cells and the biodegradable basic matrix for preparing artificial organs.
