Abstract:
To reconstruct a composite skin substitute composed of keratinocytes and collagen sponge as dermal scaffold. Collagen was extracted from fresh porcine skin. After being mixed with chondroitin sulfate, it was frozen and dried under vacuum to form a spongy membrane. Keratinocytes were separated from the foreskin with the routine method, and they seeded on the collagen membrane. The keratocytes which were carried by the collagen sponge were cultured, and the growth and proliferation were observed. The result showed that keratinocytes could grow and proliferate to form a confluent layer after 2~3 weeks. It indicated the the collagen sponge membrane showed no toxicity to human epidermal cells, and it could be used as a dermal scaffold in the construction of a composite skin substitute.
