Abstract:
With the development of the economy and technological progress, more and more animal-derived mesh products are being utilized in the medical field for tissue and organ repair and replacement. Owing to the complexity of their structure and production process, these animal-derived meshes still face several challenges in practical applications, such as insufficient mechanical strength, rapid degradation rates, and the detection of harmful leachable substances. Among these challenges, the production process is a key factor affecting product quality. This paper reviews the key aspects of the production process and quality control for animal-derived meshes in China, offering new insights for the quality control and regulatory oversight of such products.
