The aim of the present study was to compare the biodegradation of differently cross-linked collagen membranes in rats. [] Key Method Specimens were randomly allocated in unconnected subcutaneous pouches separated surgically on the back of 40 wistar rats, which were divided into five groups (2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 weeks), including eight animals each. After 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 weeks of healing, the rats were sacrificed and explanted specimens were prepared for histologic and histometric analysis.

Angiogenesis pattern of native and cross-linked collagen membranes: an immunohistochemical study in the rat.

It may be concluded that pattern of transmembraneous angiogenesis markedly differs among the membranes investigated, and that BM, BM, BME and TD exhibited a homogeneous trans Membraneous formation of blood vessels merely 4-8 weeks following implantation.

Biodegradation of three different collagen membranes in the rat calvarium: a comparative study.

The tested membranes differed in their degradation patterns and collagen contents, and should be chosen for each clinical case according to the desired biodegradation characteristics.

Biodegradation pattern and tissue integration of native and cross-linked porcine collagen soft tissue augmentation matrices – an experimental study in the rat

It was concluded that ethylene dioxide seems to be not suitable for stabilization of collagen matrices for soft tissue augmentation procedures, and native dermal Type I and III collagen showed an increased inflammatory response and compromised tissue integration.

Sequential healing of onlay bone grafts using combining biomaterials with cross‐linked collagen in dogs

Combining biomaterials with cross-linked collagen might contribute to maintaining its initial morphology with excellent biocompatibility in early healing period of lateral onlay grafts.

Differences in degradation behavior of two non-cross-linked collagen barrier membranes: an in vitro and in vivo study.

After 20 weeks, the thickness of RX decreased only slightly, whereas BG showed a thickness loss of around 50% and stronger degradation than RX, which was confirmed in the animal study.

Physiochemical properties and resorption progress of porcine skin-derived collagen membranes: In vitro and in vivo analysis.

In enzyme resistance and tensile strength tests, DHT and DHT/EDC membranes demonstrated good resistance and mechanical properties compared with BG, and the DHT membrane exhibited its potential as a barrier membrane for guided bone and tissue regeneration.

Tissue integration patterns of non-crosslinked and crosslinked collagen membranes: an experimental in vivo study.

Although BG membranes were more rapidly biodegraded than CM membranes, they were gradually replaced by connective tissue with complete integration and maturation of the surrounding tissues to form dense periosteum-like connective tissues.

Systemic tetracycline delays degradation of three different collagen membranes in rat calvaria.

Systemically administered TTC in sub-antibacterial doses may offer a possible treatment alternative to reduce bio-degradation and enhance bio-durability of certain collagen membranes.

Tissue integration of collagen-based matrices: an experimental study in mice.

The degree of cross-linking was negatively correlated for all outcome measures resulting in improved tissue integration, superior matrix stability and enhanced angiogenic patterns for the less cross-linked collagen matrix (CM2) in this experimental study in mice.

Ossification of a novel cross-linked porcine collagen barrier in guided bone regeneration in dogs.

Both membranes were safe and effective in supporting bone regeneration in critical size alveolar ridge defects in dogs and completely degraded within 24 weeks with marked BCM inconsistency.

Regeneration of rat calvarial defects using a bioabsorbable membrane technique: influence of collagen cross-linking.

The results showed that augmenting the degree of collagen cross-linking diminished the membrane resorption rate, and the efficacy of collagen membranes in guiding bone regeneration, as well as the importance of the type and degree of cross- linking.

Comparative analysis of collagen membranes for the treatment of implant dehiscence defects.

GBR treatment with collagen membranes may significantly enhance bone regeneration, manifested at late stage (16 weeks) of healing; and space maintenance and membrane coverage were the two most important factors affecting GBR using bioabsorbable collagen membranes.

Biocompatibility of various collagen membranes in cultures of human PDL fibroblasts and human osteoblast-like cells.

It was concluded that BG, TD and OS promoted, and (ii) BM inhibited the attachment and proliferation of human PDL fibroblasts and human SaOs-2 osteoblasts.

An investigation of resorption and tissue reaction after subcutaneous implantation of collagen based membrane materials in rats.

It was concluded that these membrane materials were well tolerated and were gradually resorbed and the resorption process was continuing and these materials were evident histologically at 42 days.

Collagen Membrane Resorption in Dogs: A Comparative Study

In the dog, all three tested collagen membranes showed slight to moderate degradation at 1 month and were severely degraded to completely absent at 4 months, suggesting clinicians need to be aware of these resorption rates when selecting membranes for guided tissue and bone regeneration.

Collagen membranes: a review.

The use of grafting material in combination with collagen membranes seems to improve clinical outcomes for furcation, but not intrabony, defects when compared to the use of membranes alone, and the properties that make collagen membranes attractive for use in regenerative therapy will be addressed.

A basic study was performed on periodontal flap surgery performed on the palatal gingiva beside the maxillary first molar teeth in rats and the implantation of atelocollagen membrane significantly reduced the apical migration.
