"The most important qualities of amniotic membrane include a low antigenicity, good adherence to the wound surface, potential antimicrobial activity, and its abundant availability."

Abstract: Partial-thickness burns involve damage to the upper layer of skin, which leaves nerve endings exposed, and therefore represent the most painful of several categories of thermal injuries. Historically, partial-thickness burns were treated conservatively by debriding the blisters, by dail...
