Abstract
A transplant product derived from human umbilical cord has a collagenous tissue membrane derived from an umbilical cord, configured as a soft tissue barrier or wound covering or other internal or external wound healing attachment. The structural, chemical and biochemical properties are retained, the collagenous tissue membrane is cleaned removing the veins, arteries and Wharton's jelly without exposure to harsh chemicals. The collagenous tissue membrane is soaked in normal saline solution under mild agitation for a predetermined time to structurally increase tear resistance of the membrane. The collagenous tissue membrane is free of meconium. The collagenous tissue membrane has a general transparent or translucent appearance of a clear or slightly pink color. In one embodiment, the transplant product has one or more suture entry sites to facilitate suturing the product to tissue.
