Table 5.

Gal antigen expression in the tissues and tissue-derived biomaterials (n = 3).

Tissue/biomaterial Gal epitopes/mg Antigen reduction (%)
Porcine kidney tissue (Freeze-dried) (6.32 ± 1.01) ×1017
Porcine dermal tissue (Freeze-dried) (5.92 ± 1.63) ×1015
Porcine cornea tissue (wet) (1.54 ± 0.55) ×1013
Bovine pericardial membrane (wet) (2.49 ± 0.50) ×1015
Biological dural graft (wet) (1.6 ± 0.02) ×1013 99.36%*

*p < 0.05, Gal antigen was significantly decreased compared to fresh bovine pericardial membrane.
