Sequence™ LifeScience, Inc. was established in 2021 with the
goal of being a premier human tissue allograft processing facility.
Working closely with partners, our skilled Operations and Quality teams provide the highest caliber human cell and tissue products (HCT/Ps). We strive to provide products with real clinical value to patients and physicians.
to ethically advancing human healing, serving our partners and community with excellence, and respecting the gift of donation. To continuously strive to achieve total customer satisfaction through the highest quality products and services. Sequence LifeScience is committed to the requirements of the Quality Management System (QMS) and to continually improving the (QMS) to maintain its effectiveness and sustainability.
Sequence LifeScience maximizes the gift of tissue donation. We treat each donors tissue with the respect and appreciation warranted to these thoughtful donors. Our human placental tissue allografts (Rebound™ Full Thickness Allograft Matrix and Emerge™ Dual Membrane Allograft Matrix) are processed in such a way to retain the structural and functional characteristics of the starting tissue. The final product is dehydrated, packaged in different size sheets, and terminally sterilized by irradiation. The product consists primarily of extracellular matrix proteins and serves as a natural, biologic barrier or wound cover.
Our current products are derived from placental tissue which was previously considered biologic waste. The placental membranes are a newly formed (during the 9 months of gestation), pristine extracellular matrix containing growth factors and cytokines produced to protect and support fetal development. This tissue essentially represents a neomatrix.Research and clinical studies going back over a century have exhibited the beneficial effects of utilizing human placental membranes to manage various types of wounds due to injury, disease, or surgical intervention. These studies have indicated several beneficial properties of the placental membranes including; serving as a protective wound barrier, anti-microbial effects and anti-inflammatory effects, among others (1,2).
Broadly, the placental membranes include an internal or fetus facing amnion and an external or maternal facing chorion. The physical and biochemical properties of the two primary membranes are subtly different owing to the position they occupy in the placenta. The amnion is a thinner yet more compact layer of extracellular matrix while the chorion is a slightly thicker but less compact matrix. Both layers are constituted of collagen fibers (predominantly Types I, III, IV and V), along with other ECM proteins (including laminin, fibronectin, proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid) plus numerous growth factors and cytokines (2).
The placental membrane is a newly formed extracellular matrix produced during pregnancy. In this role the membranes play a critical role in cushioning and forming a protective barrier around the developing fetus. Further, the placental membrane acts as a filter for water, soluble materials and bioactive molecules present in the amniotic fluid (3).
Placental membrane products have been shown to be immunogenically privileged due to a significant decrease in Major Histocompatibility Complex (4) and Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLA) (5,6).
The placental membrane extracellular matrix also functions as a binding site for a number of cell signaling cytokines and growth factors including bFGF, EGF, HA, TGF-beta, IL-1, 6 & 10, PDGF, MMPs and TIMPs (7,8,9,10).
Use of Emerge ™ Matrix by qualified health care professional is for application in physician office, outpatient, or inpatient setting. For a patient population where full thickness acute and chronic wounds where a biologic barrier or wound cover is required.
Rebound™ Matrix is used by or on order for a licensed physician for single patient use. The typical patient population includes those with chronic full thickness ulcers and other skin defects where a biological barrier or cover is required.
Use of Emerge™ Matrix by a qualified health care professional is for application in physician office, outpatient, or inpatient setting. For a patient population where full thickness acute and chronic wounds where a biologic barrier or wound cover is required.

Sequence manufactures humans cells, tissues and cellular and tissues based products that are regulated solely under the authority of section 361 as described in 21 CFR 1271.10.
Emerge™ & Rebound™ Allograft Matrix products are processed in classified ISO 5 environments. Quality controls are in place to ensure the safety of the tissue for transplant.
Donated tissues for Sequences Allograft Matrix products are collected from fully consented mothers undergoing full term c-sections. Each donor is screened according to the strict standards required by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the American Association of Tissue Banks. Maternal screening includes:
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)
HIV-1/2 Antibodies (HIV-1/2-Ab)
Nucleic Acid Test for HIV-1 RNA (HIV-1 NAT)
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV)
HBV Surface Antigen (HBsAg)
HBV Core Antibody IgG & IgM (HBcAb)
Nucleic Acid Test for HBV DNA (HBV NAT)
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)
HCV Antibody (HCVAb)
Nucleic Acid Test for HCV RNA (HCV NAT)
Syphilis*
Rapid Plasma Reagin Screen (RPR) -Or- Serologic Test for Syphilis (STS) -Or- Fluorescent Treponemal Antibody (FTA) -Or- T. pallidum IgG
West Nile Virus (WNV NAT)
Emerge & Rebound Placental-derived Allograft products undergo a validated terminal sterilization step achieving a 10-6 SAL to help ensure these products are safe for transplant.
This place is amazing! This is by far the best experience I’ve had with microneedling. Totally painless and the serums they use before the procedure lessen the redness of my skin afterwards. The bedside manner is unmatched and they always ask if I’m comfortable during the procedure. I’ve had 3 sessions so far and will continue coming back.
I really like the place, the service was great. The technicians explained how it works through the whole process and made me feel comfortable with the services. I purchased the laser lipo package and it's showing results after the second treatment. I am definitely coming back for the micro-needling.
We also provide private label opportunities for distribution partners that require an efficient and reliable tissue manufacturer that meet or exceed expectations with quality as a crucial component
