Organogenesis Inc.' Expanding Wound Care Portfolio Featured In Eight New Presentations This Week At SAWC/WHS Spring 2016

CANTON, Mass. and ATLANTA, April 14, 2016/PRNewswire/ -- This week, new data featuring Organogenesis' bioengineered cell-based wound healing products Apligraf® and Dermagraft®, and the wound management products PuraPly and PuraPly Antimicrobial (AM), will be presented at the Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC) / Wound Healing Society (WHS) Spring Meeting, the leading national wound healing conference being held in Atlanta, Georgia.   

Organogenesis Inc., a global leader in advanced wound care innovation, will also feature its entire product portfolio at booth #607.  The company's recently launched PuraPly Antimicrobial (AM), the first collagen matrix plus PHMB antimicrobial, will also be featured in the 'New Product Showcase,' in the conference exhibit hall.

The clinical scientific presentations on Organogenesis products include a landmark study showing how Apligraf converts the genetic profile of wound cells from a chronic to an acute healing state, and new case series evaluating PuraPly and PuraPly AM in the effective management of several types of wounds. 

Other studies presented will focus on an in vitro angiogenesis model that demonstrates how Apligraf influences the migration of cells important in wound healing, the expression of key wound healing genes by Apligraf and Dermagraft cells, and how PuraPly Antimicrobial is effective at killing wound healing-inhibiting bacteria in a porcine wound model. 

"We are proud to continue our tradition of contributing to the scientific discussion and understanding of wound healing with our broad range of data, which ultimately provide wound care practitioners with actionable information to better treat their patients," stated Gary S. Gillheeney, Sr., President and CEO of Organogenesis.
