Background: Human donor skin is processed to make the acellular dermis matrix (ADM) for tissue repair and regeneration. There is no data on the viscoelastic properties of ADM at room and subzero temperatures.
Objective: The work evaluated the temperature dependence of viscoelastic properties of freeze-dried ADM.
Materials And Methods: Donor skin was de-epidermized, de-cellularized and freeze-dried with trehalose as the lyo-protectant. Glass transition of freeze-dried ADM was measured by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), and viscoelastic properties were examined by dynamic mechanical analyzer (DMA).
Results: At the low moisture range (1.4 +/- 0.5%), the glass transition temperature (Tg) of freeze-dried ADM was 90 degree C to 100 degree C. As the moisture content increased, the Tg decreased steadily. At the high moisture range (10.8 +/- 2.9%), the Tg was 40 degree C to 60 degree C. There were large donor-to-donor variations in viscoelastic properties of freeze-dried ADM as demonstrated by the changes in storage modulus (G'), loss modulus (G") and damping factor tan delta (G"/G'). However, the trends of the temperature dependence for G', G" and tan delta were similar among all 8 donors. For each donor, changes in G' and G" were relatively small between -90 degree C and 40 degree C, and G' was at least one order of magnitude greater than G". Two viscoelastic relaxations were observed in freeze-dried ADM, one at -20 degree C and the other at -60 degree C respectively.
Conclusion: Freeze-dried ADM was protected in the glassy carbohydrate matrix. DMA observed two viscoelastic relaxations (i.e., alpha process at -20 degree C and beta process at -60 degree C). Overall changes in G' and G'' of freeze-dried ADM were relatively small within one order of magnitude between -90 degree C and 40 degree C. https://doi.org/10.54680/fr24110110612.

For decades, dermal tissue grafts have been used in various regenerative, reconstructive, and augmentative procedures across the body. To eliminate antigenicity and immunogenic response while still preserving the individual components and collective structural integrity of the extracellular matrix (ECM), dermis can be decellularized. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) products like such are produced to accurately serve diverse clinical purposes.

Proteins from the full and defatted flours of cv Jurien and cv Murringo were prepared using alkaline extraction and iso-electric precipitation. Isolates were either freeze dried or spray dried or pasteurized at 75 ± 3 °C/5 min before freeze-drying. Various structural properties were investigated to elucidate the varietal and processing-induced effect on molecular and secondary structure.

Animal derived biomaterials have attracted much attentions in treating large size bone defect due to their excellent biocompatibility and potent bioactivities offered by the biomacromolecules and growth factors contained in these materials. Dermis-derived matrix (ADM) has been used as skin grafts and wound dressings for decades, however its application in bone tissue engineering has been largely limited as ADM possesses a dense structure which does not support bone tissue ingrowth. Recently, we have successfully fabricated porous scaffold structure using an ADM with the aid of micronization technique.

Introduction: Implant-based breast reconstruction currently represents the most popular form of breast reconstruction. Acellular dermal matrix (ADM) is a biological scaffold which is used for inferolateral implant coverage in implant-based breast reconstruction. There are two types in the way when using ADM, freeze-dried type and pre-hydrated type.
