The Utility of Novel Fish-Skin Derived Acellular Dermal Matrix (Kerecis) as a Wound Dressing Material

Abstract: Background: The newly-approved Kerecis is a piscine acellular dermal xenograft. This piscine acellular dermal matrix (ADM) has specific bioactive lipid mediators, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, and has a positive effect on the process of wound healing. This study aimed to explore the utility of this novel material by comparing healing rates, and suggest the proper timing for applying Kerecis.<br/>Methods: Patients who visited the hospital with acute or chronic deep dermal wounds from June 2019 to M… Show more

“…An alternative to the use of commercial Atlantic cod acellular skin grafts is the use of tilapia, that can be in-house processed following previously described guidelines. 110,[129][130][131][132] Adjunctive mechanical therapies A variety of adjunctive mechanical techniques have been reported to enhance wound healing over the last few decades. Examples of these include negative pressure wound therapy, oxygen therapies (e.g.…”

“…A detailed description on the processing and use of acellular fish skin grafts can be found elsewhere; use in veterinary is anecdotal and no publications are available. An alternative to the use of commercial Atlantic cod acellular skin grafts is the use of tilapia, that can be in‐house processed following previously described guidelines 110,129–132 …”

“…Comparing with ADM derived from human skin, animal ADM products are more cost-effective and more frequently applied for large skin defects [21]. Some animal ADM, such as those from bovine, porcine, and fish skin, have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration [39][40][41]. For instance, Kerecis™ graft, a newly-approved ADM product from fish skin, is very attractive for wound management because of the anti-inflammatory property of its exclusive omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids [42].…”

“…Further, the Kerecis™ graft avoids the risk of potential viral and prion transmission, which might be seen in mammalian-derived products [34]. According to recent clinical studies, the Kerecis™ graft can heal acute or chronic deep skin wounds with a shorter healing time than conventional wound treatment [41,42].…”
