    Today, the US FDA announced that it has approved the listing of StrataGraft developed by Mallinckrodt's Stratatech for the treatment of adult patients with deep partial thickness burns


    For many patients with deep burns, treatment usually requires removal of the skin from the undamaged part of the body for transplantation


    StrataGraft's design mimics natural human skin, including the dermis and fully differentiated epidermis
