Organ donation in Sri Lanka was ratified by the Human Tissue Transplantation Act No. 48 of 1987.

In December 2001, Gilchrist's youngest sister underwent a successful heart transplant and, in response to the significant waiting times faced by patients hoping for organ donation, on May 5, 2003, Gilchrist introduced Bill 17, the " Organ or Tissue Donation Statute Law Amendment Act, 2003 ".

Purely altruistic donation to strangers has recently been accepted by the Human Tissue Authority in the United Kingdom, but as of December 2007 only four people had been given permission to do this under the HTA.

NAAR focused intently on its role in establishing and funding the Autism Tissue Program, a post-mortem brain tissue donation program designed to further autism research studies at the cellular and molecular level.

There is separate legislation in Scotland, the Human Tissue ( Scotland ) Act 2006 and the Authority performs certain tasks on behalf of the Scottish Executive ( approval of living donation and licensing of establishments storing tissue for human application ).

Tissue heart valves are usually made from animal tissues, either animal heart valve tissue or animal pericardial tissue.

Tissue heart valves are usually made from animal tissue, either animal heart valve tissue or animal pericardial tissue.

* Tissue ( biological ) heart valves

Tissue heart valves, in contrast, do not require the use of anticoagulant drugs due to the improved blood flow dynamics resulting in less red cell damage and hence less clot formation.

Tissue valves tend to wear out faster with increased flow demands-such as with a more active ( typically younger ) person.

Tissue valves typically last 10 – 15 years in less active ( typically elderly ) patients, but wear out faster in younger patients.

Tissue expansion is a technique used by plastic and restorative surgeons to cause the body to grow additional skin, bone or other tissues.

Tissue growth due to skin expansion can be modeled as anisotropic surface area growth as described by the following equations:

Tissue biopsy of skin or other organs may be required in order to diagnose extra-pulmonary disease.

* Suspected Deep Tissue Injury: A purple or maroon localized area of discolored intact skin or blood-filled blister due to damage of underlying soft tissue from pressure and / or shear.

" Tissue and bone regenerate, just as a lizard may grow a new tail.

* Guided bone regeneration or Guided Tissue Regeneration, a surgical procedure that uses barrier membranes to direct growth of new tissue

Tissue non-specific alkaline phosphatase ( TNSALP ) deficiency in osteoblasts and chondrocytes impairs bone mineralization, leading to rickets or osteomalacia.

The resultant legislation from these scandals ( namely the Human Tissue Act 2004 ) has tightened up the availability of resources to anatomy departments.

Tissue stretching has long been known to stimulate mitosis, and research shows that regenerated human tissues have the attributes of the original tissue.

In the United Kingdom, the Human Organ Transplants Act 1989 first made organ sales illegal, and has been superseded by the Human Tissue Act 2004.

Eleni V. Antoniadou, Head of the Biosciences Department at Transplants Without Donors LLC, mentioned in her talk at the 2012 Annual Meeting of the Regenerative Medicine and Tissue Engineering Society the following: " From a humanistic standpoint, the major aim of creating artificial organs is to give an end to the human organ trafficking, a transnational organized crime, that is rising in third world countries and has become a lucrative facet of economic development by annihilating the need for real organs.

This document is currently under review, and responsibility for it has been transferred to the Human Tissue Authority.

Tissue expansion has also been used for the technique of foreskin restoration, which is usually non-surgical and applies tension externally using specialized devices to replace circumcised tissues with new cells.

Tissue expansion has been used on the scalp for treating scalp scarring, in lieu of hair transplation when there is insufficient donor hair to transplant on the scar or the scar tissue is not vascularized to support hair growth.

Tissue engineering has also been defined as " understanding the principles of tissue growth, and applying this to produce functional replacement tissue for clinical use.

Tissue plasminogen activator has been shown to interact with Fibrinogen alpha chain, LRP1 and SERPINI1.

Gamgee Tissue has a thick layer of absorbent cotton wool between two layers of absorbent gauze.

However, the right approach on Cell and Tissue based therapies ' Clinical application for Spinal cord Injury would be to take a stand on the patients and Clinicians part that any cell or tissue source whose safety has been established could be considered for Clinical applications and continuous efforts must be undertaken to establish the efficacy and mechanisms.

Factor VII has been shown to interact with Tissue factor.

The N-terminal EGF domain has been shown to at least in part be responsible for binding Tissue factor.

In flight, they discover they have picked up a passenger, Tegan Jovanka, an airline stewardess who wandered in the TARDIS to call for help to fix her aunt's flat tyre ; the Doctor informs her the Master has killed her aunt with his Tissue Compression Eliminator.

Factor X has been shown to interact with Tissue factor pathway inhibitor.

The common Band-Aid | sticking plaster ( invented by Earle Dickson of New York in 1924 ) was based on Gamgee's gauze, however, Birmingham chemist Thomas Allcock invented a porous plaster for the relief of pain in New York as early as 1854. 1880: Gamgee Tissue is invented by Joseph Sampson Gamgee, a surgical dressing which has a thick layer of absorbent cotton wool between two layers of absorbent gauze.

It contains a miniaturised Master – the real thing – who has been transformed by a disastrous experiment with his trademark Tissue Compression Eliminator ( TCE ) weapon.

Tissue paper is produced on a paper machine that has a single large steam heated drying cylinder ( yankee dryer ) fitted with a hot air hood.

It was created by the Human Tissue Act 2004 and came into being on 1 April 2005 and its statutory functions began on April 1, 2006., the authority was chaired by Baroness Hayman and since January 2010 has been chaired by Baroness Diana Warwick.

Dr. Stephen Badylak, a Research Professor in the Department of Surgery and director of Tissue Engineering at the McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine at the University of Pittsburgh, has developed a process which involves scraping cells from the lining of a pig's bladder, decellularizing ( removing cells to leave a clean extracellular structure ) the tissue and then drying it to become a sheet or a powder.

Tissue engineering so far has only been modestly successful as the understanding of, and ability to artificially engineer, complete organ structures is still in its early days.

" Scar Tissue " has been a live staple in the band's setlists since its first performance in 1998 making it the band's third most performed song ever behind only " Give It Away " and " Under the Bridge "

Tissue lysis is always associated with the moving front ( which differentiates Type I from Type II ).
