Researchers confirm successful rehabilitation and recovery of human donor lungs previously deemed unfit for transplant

A cross-disciplinary team of surgeons and bioengineers from Vanderbilt University, Columbia University, Stanford University, New York-Presbyterian Hospital, State University of New York Downstate Medical Center, and Xylyx Bio collaborated to develop a new technique called ‘xenogeneic cross-circulation’, which involves temporarily connecting a human donor lung to a live pig to support and resuscitate the human […]

Xylyx Bio collaboration reveals new insights into tumor drug resistance

Researchers at the University of Illinois applied Xylyx Bio’s IN SITE Metastasis Kit to evaluate a cancer therapeutic. Molecular Cancer Research, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, recently published the peer-reviewed manuscript. The results showed that dietary interventions may increase the efficacy of treatment for breast cancer metastases. Read the Publication! Watch […]

What they’re saying

“ We were looking for a product to use for engineering cartilage tissue. We used the TissueSpec® Cartilage ECM Hydrogel to encapsulate chondrocytes within the 3D tissue environment the cells are exposed to in native cartilage. Chondrocytes grew really well, and these tissue constructs have developed mechanical and biochemical properties and histological staining similar to native articular cartilage.”
