What quality assurance steps are taken?
AMNIOGRAFT® and PROKERA® are procured and processed according to Good Tissue Practices (GTP) regulations and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) regulations established by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Placental tissues are retrieved from donor mothers after elective cesarean section under full informed consent. The donor mothers are screened at delivery for infectious, malignant, neurological and auto-immune diseases and other exposures or social habits to determine the suitability for human transplantation.
