Persistent air leaks caused by thoracic surgery, physical trauma, or spontaneous pneumothoraces are a cause of patient morbidity with need for extended chest tube durations and surgical interventions. Current treatment measures involve mechanical clo... Read More about Decellularisation and Characterisation of Porcine Pleura as Bioscaffolds in Tissue Engineering.

Decellularisation and characterisation of porcine pleura for lung tissue engineering (2023)
Journal Article
Vikranth, T., Dale, T., & Forsyth, N. R. (in press). Decellularisation and characterisation of porcine pleura for lung tissue engineering. bioRxiv, https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.06.20.545830

Decellularisation offers a broad range of biomimetic scaffolds of allogeneic and xenogeneic origins, exhibiting innate tissue-specific characteristics. We explored a physico-chemical method for decellularising porcine pleural membranes (PPM) as poten...
