Functional Assessment of Rat Sciatic Nerve Regeneration Using a Nerve Conduit Based on Ion Exchange Membrane.

The problem with modern nerve conduits is inability to transmit nerve impulses to the distal part of the damaged nerve. Cationic conductivity is a necessary characteristic of the nerve conduit ensuring effective regeneration of the peripheral nerves. We performed a functional assessment of the regeneration of rat sciatic nerve using a nerve conduit based on an ion-exchange membrane.

Results of Experimental Hernioplasty with Acellular Dermal Matrix.

We performed a comprehensive assessment of the acellular dermal matrix obtained during the detergent-enzymatic treatment of the porcine dermis. Acellular dermal matrix was used for the experimental treatment of a hernial defect in a pig using the sublay method. Sixty days after the surgery, biopsy specimens were obtained from the area of hernia repair.

Electrodialysis Tartrate Stabilization of Wine Materials: Fouling and a New Approach to the Cleaning of Aliphatic Anion-Exchange Membranes.

Electrodialysis (ED) is an attractive method of tartrate stabilization of wine due to its rapidity and reagentlessness. At the same time, fouling of ion-exchange membranes by the components of wine materials is still an unsolved problem. The effect of ethanol, polyphenols (mainly anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins) and saccharides (fructose) on the fouling of aliphatic ion-exchange membranes CJMA-6 and CJMC-5 (manufactured by Hefei Chemjoy Polymer Materials Co.

Comparative Morphological Characteristics of the Results of Implantation of Decellularized and Recellularized Porcine Skin Scaffolds.

The tissue reaction of pig skin to implantation of decellularized and recellularized dermal matrices on a formed wound defect was evaluated by histological methods on days 2, 5, 8, 16, and 20 after surgery. Differences in tissue response to different matrices were identified. In experimental wounds coated with decellularized dermal matrices, we observed the formation of a scar tissue, which required autodermoplasty on day 12 of the experiment.

Total full-thickness skin grafting for treating patients with extensive facial burn injury: A 10-year experience.

Introduction: Facial burns are not only a severe burn injury, but result in psychological disturbance. The improvement of the methods of treating facial burns remains topical. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of approach based on full-thickness skin autografting for facial burn injuries.
