Porcine Peritoneal Membrane
SSR supplies porcine peritoneal membrane for medical device development, wound care applications, regenerative medicine, surgical research, and other life-science programs.
The peritoneal membrane is a thin tissue that helps protect and support abdominal organs while providing lubrication and pathways for blood vessels and nerves. SSR can collect, prepare, package, and deliver porcine peritoneal membrane according to customer specifications, supporting both research-scale projects and recurring commercial programs.
Common Applications for Porcine Peritoneal Membrane
• Medical device development
• Wound healing and wound care applications
• Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering
• Surgical research and product development
• Extracellular matrix (ECM) research
• Biomaterial testing and prototyping
• Further-manufacturing programs using porcine membrane tissue
• Custom porcine tissue programs requiring specific preparation, packaging, or traceability
Product Details
Product Standards
- The Peritoneal membrane is collected from the chest cavity and is checked for any obvious holes or deformaties.
Product Uses & Applications
- The Peritoneal membrane can be made into medical devices which can promote wound healing and is commonly used in surgical procedures.
Product Appearance
- Product is rinsed and must give every indication of being fresh and free from any off conditions, off-odors, gassiness, wetness or slimy conditions.
- All product must be free of extraneous and foreign material and give every indication of being fresh and be free of any off-conditions.
- All products are harvested from animals who have passed USDA antemortem and postmortem inspection.

Storage Solutions
We offer a range of storage and packaging solutions to meet diverse needs. The most common option is frozen packaging in a wax-lined box. Additional options include:
- Cardboard combos
- Individually packed bags
- Coolers or containers
- And many more customized solutions
Standard storage temperatures include 0°F (-17.8°C) for frozen products and 40°F (4.4°C) for refrigerated products, ensuring product integrity and freshness.
Storage, Handling & Shipping
Porcine peritoneal membrane materials are handled to support freshness, quality, and product integrity. Standard storage temperatures include 0°F (-17.8°C) for frozen products and 40°F (4.4°C) for refrigerated products when a fresh program is specified. Packaging options may include individually packed bags, coolers, containers, and other custom solutions. SSR can support shipping approaches based on the material, preservation method, volume, and individual project requirements.

Porcine Peritoneal Membrane FAQ’s
What is porcine peritoneal membrane?
Porcine peritoneal membrane is a thin biological membrane collected from pigs. In the body, the peritoneal membrane surrounds and supports abdominal organs, helps reduce friction through lubrication, and provides pathways for blood vessels and nerves.
What is porcine peritoneal membrane used for?
Porcine peritoneal membrane can be used in medical device development, surgical research, wound healing applications, regenerative medicine, and biomaterial research. Its thin, flexible structure also makes it useful for projects exploring tissue-based scaffolds and other biologically derived materials.
Can porcine peritoneal membrane be used for extracellular matrix applications?
Yes. Porcine peritoneum can serve as a starting material for extracellular matrix-based research and product development. SSR has supplied porcine tissues including peritoneum for regenerative technologies involving decellularized ECM materials used in tissue repair applications.
Does SSR supply porcine peritoneal membrane in bulk?
Yes. SSR does not have a standard minimum order quantity and can support anything from smaller research needs to larger-scale commercial supply programs. Pricing and quantities are based on the material and the customer’s specific preparation, packaging, and logistical requirements.
How is porcine peritoneal membrane prepared?
SSR states that the membrane is collected, fat removed, and inspected for obvious holes or deformities. Material is rinsed and checked for freshness and freedom from foreign material or other off-conditions before packaging. Products are sourced from animals that have passed USDA ante-mortem and post-mortem inspection.
