These tissues were designed with extensive input from our medical device, hospital and military clients to exhibit realistic puncture resistance, suture holding, and electrocautery, laser scalpel and plasma knife performance.

SynTissue brand synthetic human tissue components are designed on the basis of physical tests performed on actual living tissue. Each synthetic tissue is validated (tensile modulus, abrasion resistance, penetration force, coefficient of friction, thermal conductivity, dielectric constant, etc.) under the same physical conditions as the live tissue is it designed to simulate. The resulting synthetic tissue responds to stimulus much like the real living tissue.

SynTissue synthetic human tissues are made from salt, water, and fiber, and feature the world’s most realistic tactility.
