The invention provides a preparation method of a biological matrix gel material for promoting regeneration and repair of cartilage, a gel performance determination method and application. The steps include: adding a GP solution into a mixed solution of a human amniotic membrane-PEI system and a mixed solution of a chitosan solution to conduct blending treatment to obtain a chitosan/human amniotic membrane-PEI/GP system mixed solution with the biological matrix gel material as the matrix. The gel formed by the chitosan solution and the GP solution maintains the activity of cells in the mixed solution of the human amniotic membrane-PEI system, promotes the regeneration and repair of cartilage, and artificial joint replacement is no longer carried out for treatment, therefore, the non-surgical treatment effect of severe osteoarthritis formed by further development of cartilage injury is improved.
