摘要:
A method for the production of a hollow fiber membrane by the steps of discharging a spinning dope through an annular spinning nozzle and, at the same time, introducing a non-coagulating liquid for the spinning dope into the central cavity in a hollow fiber of the spinning dope being discharged, and then introducing the discharged fiber of the spinning dope into a coagulating liquid thereby solidifying the discharged fiber into a hollow fiber membrane, which method is characterized by incorporating a surface modifying agent in said non-coagulating liquid thereby modifying the inner surface behavior of the produced hollow fiber membrane.
摘要:
A medical material which comprises an oil-soluble vitamin hydrophobically bound to a hydrophobic moiety containing macromer which is bound to the surface of a polymeric substrate via a copolymer is described. Suitable macromers include for example glycidyl methacrylate-linoleic acid. Suitable polymeric substrate materials include, in particular, cellulose. Methods for producing said medical material are also provided.
摘要:
A drinking water device including a water storage section that stores drinking water inside an installation type casing; a water outlet that is connected to the water storage section via a passage and is located outside the casing; filtering device that is provided in the passage on further upstream side of the water outlet so as to be freely attachable/detachable; and a flow rate switch, which is provided between the water storage section and the water outlet and which is capable of detecting flow rate of the drinking water and also capable of outputting an actuating signal upon detecting the flow rate within a preset flow rate range.
摘要:
An absorbable spun, cotton-like topical hemostat containing fibers entangled with each other and being made of atelcollagen obtained by reconstituting solubilized collagen. Each of the fibers has a diameter of 10 to 70 .mu.m and a length of 3 to 70 mn. At least a part of the collagen molecules constituting the fibers are crosslinked by heat at a temperature of 50.degree. to 200.degree. C. The hemostat is swellable upon contact with blood. In use, the hemostat readily adapts to the shape of the hemorrhagic site, has an adhesiveness to a bleeding surface and provides an effective suppression of hemorrhage.

The cellulosic hollow-fiber membranes of the invention are useful in fluid processing apparatus typically for artificial dialysis. Each fiber has a tubular microporous wall having micropores and defining a lumen. The micropores have an average pore diameter of about 55 to about 300 .ANG.. The cellulosic hollow fibers exhibit a percent removal of .beta..sub.2 -microglobulin through adsorption of up to 10% after a solution of 20 mg/l of .beta..sub.2 -microglobulin in water is circulated through the fiber lumen for 3 hours. They also exhibit a sufficient filtration fraction of .beta..sub.2 -microglobulin and a ultrafiltration rate to remove .beta..sub.2 -microglobulin from blood predominantly through filtration while preventing contamination of the membranes with .beta..sub.2 -microglobulin due to adsorption and controlling the amount of water removed from the blood. The fibers are prepraed by wet spinning a cellulosic spinning dope into a hollow fiber followed by washing, heat treatment, plasticizing, and drying.
