RenoVo is an equine amniotic tissue allograft, with higher concentrations of IRAP, growth factors/cytokines, and is
readily available off the shelf. One of the newer modalities, RenoVo is intended to supplement and protect tissues. An
allograft is a tissue graft from a donor of the same species as the recipient and amniotic tissue is what surrounds the foal
during pregnancy. Amnion and amniotic fluid contain many key factors in the healing process. The tissue is recovered
from healthy mares during live births, without harm to mare or foal. The product can be used on a variety of issues,
including post-surgical, injuries, and joints.
