Zusammenfassung:The pristine Human Amniotic Membrane (HAM) has portrayed outstanding potential as scaffold for ocular surface reconstruction and regeneration. However, in treatment procedures where the supporting membrane matrix of HAM is not obligatory and only the bioactive molecules are vital, the surgical practise of HAM grafting causes redundant trauma and economic burden to the patient. Hence, in our laboratory we have attempted to break down HAM to nanoscale particles and validate its potential as a competent ocular therapeutic agent; by conducting a comparative analysis between the fresh, lyophilized, micronized and Nanonized Amniotic Membrane (NAM) particles. Our results evidently showcased that the prepared NAM particles was
