Les hydrogels polymères ci-décrits sont conçus pour faire l'objet d'implants chirurgicaux par modification chimique de leur surface, afin de stimuler la fixation et la croissance des cellules. Ladite modification peut se faire par attaque à l'acide oxydant ou par copolymérisation avec de l'acide métacrylique et du métacrylate de diéthylaminoéthyle.
摘要:
The present invention provides anti-thrombogenic compositions, including anti-thrombogenic vascular grafts. In certain embodiments, the compositions comprise decellularized tissue coated with an anti-thrombogenic coating. The present invention also provides methods of preparing anti-thrombogenic compositions and methods of treatment comprising implanting the anti-thrombogenic compositions into a subject in need thereof.
摘要:
A plastic medical article, such as a catheter or blood collection tube, is coated with a crosslinked hydrogel permanently bound to the inside wall of the tube. The hydrophilic surface provided by the hydrogel prevents adherence of blood components to the surface, and the permanent adherence of the hydrogel prevents its removal by blood.
摘要:
A bioresorbable sealant composition useful for impregnating implantable soft-tissue prostheses includes at least two polysaccharides in combination to form a hydrogel or sol-gel. The sealant compositions may optionally include a bioactive agent and/or be cross-linked subsequent to application of these compositions to the substrate surface.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a bifunctional material which comprises copper and which is capable of storing nitric oxide (NO), as well as catalytically producing nitric oxide from a suitable precursor. The material typically includes a zeolite and the copper may be part of, or separate from the zeolite. In this manner the material may include a single bifunctional material; that is, a material which is capable of both storing NO and catalytically producing NO, such as Cu-MFI or Cu-X. Alternatively the material may include at least two components, a first component to store NO, such as a zeolite Zn-LTA, and a further component including Cu(I), such as Cu2O, to catalytically produce NO from a suitable precursor. The bifunctional material may be used in a pharmaceutical, neutraceutical or cosmetic preparation, or comprised in a medical article, a cosmetic and/or personal hygiene product.

摘要:
The invention includes a medical hydrogel made from polymerized polysaccharide macromers. The macromers are preferably polysaccharides decorated with polymerizable groups, for example, methacrylates. The macromers may also be made into polymers of at least two macromers polymerized together. These polymers are preferably multi-armed or high-molecular weight and used for medical uses, for example, making coatings on medical devices. Macromers of N-vinylpyrrolidone are also disclosed herein.
摘要:
A blood gas syringe includes a porous plastic plug having a crosslinked hydrogel affixed to a wall of a passageway of the plug. When a blood sample is taken with the syringe, the incoming sample forces air in the system out through the passageway of the plug until the sample contacts the hydrogel, causing the passageway to seal shut.
