NONTOXIC VERNIX COMPOSITIONS AND METHOD OF PRODUCING

摘要

A composition consisting essentially of vernix for a skin curative and skin protectant effect and a method of producing. A natural or synthetic vernix is dispersed in a film-forming amount in a biocompatible liquid such as dimethylsulfoxide, amniotic fluid and/or pulmonary surfactant to form a film. The film may be applied to a growing layer of epithelial cells either directly or supported on a substrate such as a wound dressing, a diaper, or a feminine hygiene product.
