摘要:
The invention relates to a method for inactivating viruses, characterized in that an immunogenic composition or vaccine comprising at least one virus is irradiated with electron beams, said immunogenic composition or vaccine comprising at least one virus (i) being liquid, in particular being a suspension and (ii) comprising at least one viral immunogen, wherein the antigen structure is preferably substantially retained.

The present disclosure provides methods for reducing bioburden on a tissue product, as well as the tissue products produced according to the disclosed methods. In particular, the disclosure relates to methods of electroporating tissue in the presence of one or more bactericides in order to reduce bioburden. The methods allow for reduced exposure to electrical energy and/or bactericide while reducing bioburden.
摘要:
This invention provides a method of sterilising an S-nitrosothiol, for example S-nitrosoglutathione, without reduction of purity by more than about 5.0% through degradation. The invention allows sterile S-nitrosothiol or a sterile pharmaceutical pre-composition comprising S-nitrosothiol, wherein the S-nitrosothiol is in dry solid form, to be produced. The sterile pharmaceutical pre-composition is mixed with one or more diluents, excipients, carriers, additional active agents, or any combination thereof, for example sterile saline, to prepare a pharmaceutical composition of S-nitrosothiol for use.
摘要:
Tissue and other body structures may be protected using a hydrated composition made from free-flowing substantially collagen-free rehydratable polysaccharide particles and rehydratable polysaccharide sponges. Rehydration of the particles without clumping may be carried out be dispersing the particles in a biocompatible water-miscible polar dispersant such as ethanol and combining the dispersion with sufficient aqueous solvent for the particles to convert them to a cohesive hydrogel. The hydrated composition may assist in returning an injured, inflamed or surgically repaired surface to a normal state, e.g., through one or more healing mechanisms such as modulation of an inflammatory response, phagocytosis, mucosal remodeling, reciliation or other full or partial restoration of normal function.
摘要:
A system for sterilizing a fluid includes a sterilization container bounding a fluid flow path that can be coupled with a fluid source. The sterilization container is comprised of one or more polymeric walls. A beam generator is configured to direct a beam of electromagnetic radiation through at least a portion of the fluid flow path of the sterilization container, the beam of electromagnetic radiation being sufficient to sterilize a fluid within the fluid flow path.

摘要:
An electron beam irradiation device which can irradiate an electron beam uniformly to an entire outer surface of an object of irradiation by using a small-sized low-energy electron accelerator with a narrow irradiation window is provided. The device has electron beam irradiation means forming an electron beam irradiation zone and gripping/moving means gripping a part of an object of irradiation and causing the object of irradiation to pass through the electron beam irradiation zone, and the whole surface of the object of irradiation can uniformly pass through the electron beam irradiation zone by combining re-gripping of the object of irradiation by two gripping mechanisms provided on the gripping/moving means, rotation of the object of irradiation by two rotation mechanisms, and movement of the object of irradiation by two moving mechanisms.
摘要:
A method and an arrangement for sterilizing, in particular for sterilizing an adsorber, which has an adsorber housing that is to be filled with an adsorbent, are such that, instead of the adsorbent-filled adsorber housing being sterilized, the adsorbent is sterilized in a separate container, which is dimensioned such that the adsorbent spreads out in a thin layer in the container. Together with the adsorber housing, the container for sterilizing the adsorbent forms a closed system, such that the adsorbent can be transferred into the adsorber housing without the need for an aseptic environment. The container for receiving the adsorbent is preferably a bag, in which the adsorbent spreads out in a thin layer when the bag is lying flat on a plane surface. Since the adsorbent in the bag spreads out in a thin layer, the sterilization requires only a relatively small dose of radiation, which cannot damage the adsorbent. The bag is irradiated with high-energy radiation, in particular ionizing radiation. The adsorbent is then transferred from the bag into the adsorber housing. During the transfer of the adsorbent into the adsorber housing, the air and/or excess liquid present in the adsorber housing is removed from the adsorber housing preferably into one or more empty bags.
