As a leading and validated processor of high quality amniotic and placental tissue biologics we are thrilled to be providing our FastActing BioECM advanced woundcare products to New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (HHC) and ProHEALTH Medical Management and ProHEALTH Care Associates two of the largest healthcare networks in New York. Hospitals across the United States are quickly adding Skye's innovative FastActing amniotic membrane product line up for surgical applications and for advanced wound care." Said Chris Sharp CEO, Skye Biologics. ?As a company, our mission is to create and deliver the most viable biologic solutions so patients have the best opportunity for a good outcome as shown in our previous wound study with our proprietary FastActing membranes. We are committed to developing new, innovative product formulations to meet the various needs of physicians and the patients they treat. We pride ourselves on our HydraTek Process and how well we preserve the biologic integrity of these tissues. Historically this has not been a consideration by many biologic and tissue processors."

FastActing WoundEx Amniotic Membranes are part of Skye's extensive line of amniotic and placental products designed to help support proper tissue formation while reducing scarring and controlling pain and inflammation. Skye products are processed with the next-generation HydraTek® Technology that has been independently validated to maintain the majority of natural collagens, growth factors, and BioActive® molecules found in natural, unprocessed placental tissues. HydraTek, utilizing its proprietary BioAware System is designed to better preserve the products' natural biomechanical structure by scientifically controlling moisture levels versus traditional heat-baking or lyophilization systems and avoids the use of harsh chemical rinses.
