American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1965
Abstract 1. 1. Total lipids, phospholipids, esterified fatty acids (EFA), and cholesterol were studied in 167 amniotic membranes. These membranes were taken from 60 women of European origin, 63 women of Oriental origin, and 44 women of Yemenite origin. Venous blood was also studied for total lipids in these three groups of women. 2. 2.

Human Amniotic Membranes for Burns
The American Journal of Nursing, 1975Wound closure is the primary focus in caring for burned patients. Ultimately, this is achieved when the partial-thickness burn re-epithelializes or when split-thickness skin grafts are applied to the full-thickness burn. Until these goals are achieved, a temporary covering must be found to protect the integrity of granulating tissue and preserve a ...

Cross-linking of amniotic membranes
Journal of Biomaterials Science, Polymer Edition, 1999Human amniotic membrane was cross-linked with chemical and radiation methods to investigate the effect of cross-linking on its physicochemical and biodegradation properties. Radiation cross-linking was performed with gamma-ray and electron beam while chemical cross-linking was with glutaraldehyde (GA).

How Does Amniotic Membrane Work?
The Ocular Surface, 2004Transplantation of amniotic membrane as a temporary or permanent graft promotes epithelial wound healing and exerts potent anti-inflammatory and anti-scarring effects on the ocular surface. These actions depend on the killing of allogeneic amniotic cells and preservation of the cytokine-containing matrix during the preparation of the amniotic membrane.

The amniotic membrane in ophthalmology
Survey of Ophthalmology, 2004The amniotic membrane is the innermost of the three layers forming the fetal membranes. It was first used in 1910 in skin transplantation. Thereafter it has been used in surgical procedures related to the genito-urinary tract, skin, brain, and head and neck, among others.

Amniotic membrane for cervical reconstruction
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2005To evaluate the use of amniotic membrane grafts in cases of vaginal and cervical agenesis.Five girls with complete cervical and vaginal agenesis underwent cervicoplasty and vaginoplasty using amniotic membrane grafts.Excellent epithelization and patency of cervix and vagina was achieved in all cases.Amniotic membrane may be used as an allograft in ...
