“…Sequential treatment by hypotonic lysis, nuclease (deoxyribonuclease and ribonuclease) digestion and isotonic washout gently removes the cellular components of the ureter while preserving its collagen matrix, allowing implantation of this xenograft without immunosuppression. Unlike other biological grafts, the SG 100 is not chemically cross-linked, nor does it contain any external support, potentially permitting ingrowth of host cells into the matrix 9,10 . Mechanically, it is compliant and has dimensions suitable for anastomoses to upper arm vessels.…”
