Product Description

Huma TenoMatrix Coat is a native human-derived tendon extracellular matrix (ECM) product. Due to its human origin and minimal processing, Huma TenoMatrix Coat retains the native matrix proteins and growth factors found in human tendon tissue including collagens (Type I, III, IV), elastin, glycoproteins (laminin, fibronectin, tenascin, fibrillin), and glycosaminoglycans (dermatan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, keratan sulfate, and hyaluronic acid).

Huma TenoMatrix Coat is ideal for many applications including coating tissue culture surfaces to support cell attachment. Huma TenoMatrix Coat supports various cell types, including tenocytes, tenoblasts, fibroblasts, and more.
