What is EPIFIX?

EPIFIX® is a placental tissue allograft composed of dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane (DHACM). It is available in sheet and mesh/fenestrated configurations in a variety of sizes to reduce wastage.

EPIFIX is backed by the most Level I publications among placental-based allografts. The quality of MIMEDX RCTs was evaluated and validated in an assessment initiated by the Agency of Healthcare Research & Quality.1

Protective Environment

EPIFIX acts as a barrier and protects the wound bed to aid in the development of granulation tissue in acute and chronic closures.

Regulatory Proteins

EPIFIX provides a biocompatible human extracellular matrix and contains 300+ regulatory proteins.2-4

    EPIFIX Processing & Details

    EPIFIX is processed using PURION, a unique patented method for placental-based allografts that is in accordance with the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB) standards. The product is derived from placental tissue donated by healthy, consenting mothers who have given live Caesarean section birth in the US.

    MIMEDX’s patented PURION process preserves extracellular matrix components, including regulatory factors and other matrix-associated proteins. For an additional level of safety, the product is terminally sterilized.
