Abstract
Amniotic membrane, being part of the placenta, is discarded as medical waste after childbirth. It can be decellularized to convert it into an acellular material while retaining the extracellular matrix. Such amniotic membrane grafts support stem cell adhesion, growth, and proliferation. These properties make it a useful candidate to be used as a bio-scaffold in regenerative medicine. This chapter describes a method for the decellularization of the amniotic membrane. Furthermore, the method for seeding adipose-derived stem cells on the decellularized amniotic membrane is described.
