THE MORPHOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE ALTERNATIVE TISSUES FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF DISPERSED ALLOTRANSPLANTS USED IN OPHTHALMOSURGERY

Abstract

Aim is a morphological study of the alternative cadaver tissue of thigh fascia lata during the manufacturing process of dispersed allotransplants for ophthalmosurgery.Material and methods. We have studied the native cadaver tissues of the thigh fascia lata conserved in 70% ethanol and dispersed form (10 samples each) by standard histological methods. We measured bundle thickness of the collagen fibres and lumenbetween them in the integral samples; glycosaminoglycans were histochemically detected (Hale’s reaction).Results and discussion. It is established that the technological treatment doesn’t have a pronounced effect on the structure and glycosaminoglycans in the allotransplants of the thigh fascia lata which is important both for the quality of dispersed biomaterials and regenerative processes when they are used in ophthalmosurgery. The final morphological assessment to determine the regenerative potential of the dispersed allotransplants from the cadaver tissue of thigh fascial lata will be given after carrying out the experiment on animals. The obtained results allow to recommend further research of the alternative cadaver tissues.
