Conexeu’s device candidate for deep wounds from burns, injury or surgery. It goes on as a liquid and is designed to transform into a tissue-like structure in about ten minutes.
Conexeu’s collagen-based scaffold: a supportive framework made with collagen, a protein that helps give skin its strength. Ten-Minute Tissue™ is built on it.
A medical device still in development and testing. Ten-Minute Tissue™ is in preclinical (laboratory and animal) studies, has not been cleared or approved by the FDA and is not available for sale.
Able to pour and spread like a liquid, so Ten-Minute Tissue™ is designed to reach into deep, uneven spaces and take the shape of the wound.
Responsive to temperature. Ten-Minute Tissue™ is designed so that the body’s warmth triggers its change from a liquid into a gel.
The change from liquid to a gel that holds together in one piece. Ten-Minute Tissue™ is designed to set in about ten minutes and then stay in place.
A structure designed to resemble the natural tissue framework that the body’s tissue is built on. Ten-Minute Tissue™ is a material, not living tissue.
The body’s own process of fixing damaged tissue is, as cells move into an injury and gradually rebuild it. Ten-Minute Tissue™ is intended to support this process by providing the missing scaffold, not replace it.
