What Is AMNIOFIX?
AMNIOFIX is a dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane allograft. The product is available in sheet, fenestrated, and wrap configurations in a variety of sizes to reduce wastage.
Protective Barrier
- A semi-permeable protective barrier that supports the healing cascade
- Protects the wound bed to aid in the development of granulation tissue
- Provides a human biocompatible extracellular matrix

Product Details
AMNIOFIX is processed using PURION, a unique patented method for placental-based allografts that is in accordance with the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB) standards. The product is derived from donated C-sections of live births in the US. The product undergoes active preservation of the extracellular matrix (ECM), regulatory proteins, and removal of blood contaminants via a proprietary cleansing process. For an additional level of safety, the product is terminally sterilized.
AMNIOFIX provides a semi-permeable protective barrier that supports the healing cascade. The product protects the wound bed to aid in the development of granulation tissue and provides a human biocompatible extracellular matrix that retains 300+ regulatory proteins.1-3
