Decellularized tissues are prepared from biological tissues, and are clinically used in Europe and U.S. The decellularized materials show biocompatibilities at implanted sites. It is possible to transplant animal tissues to humans by decellularization treatments. The object of our research is an application and an investigation of these decellularized tissue properties for use in medical devices. The vacuum pressure impregnation technique is able to easily rehydrate materials. Our research aims to fabricate a new medical material using this technique.
