    摘要: The invention relates to a polyoxazoline (POx) copolymer comprising at least 20 oxazoline units, including at least 4 non-terminal oxazoline units that contain a calcium binding group selected from bisphosphonate, citrate, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and combinations thereof.
    The POx copolymers of the present invention exhibit very high affinity for calcium ions and are capable of forming hydrogels due to reversible cross-linking with Ca2+ ions. The POx copolymers offer the important advantage that they are bioresorbable. Calcium affinity, biodegradability and hydrogel characteristics of the POx copolymer can easily be tuned due to the fact that the POx can easily be derivatised along the entire polymeric backbone and not only at the end-groups.
    The POx copolymers of the invention may suitably be applied in a variety of biomedical applications, such as barrier membranes, patches, meshes, tapes, bone fixation devices, bone implants, (injectable) hydrogels, bone-setting glue and nanoparticles.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a haemostatic powder comprising at least 10 wt. % of particle agglomerates, said particle agglomerates having a diameter in the range of 1-500 μm and comprising: electrophilic polyoxazoline particles containing electrophilic polyoxazoline carrying at least 3 reactive electrophilic groups that are capable of reacting with amine groups in blood under the formation of a covalent bond; and nucleophilic polymer particles containing a water-soluble nucleophilic polymer carrying at least 3 reactive nucleophilic groups that, in the presence of water, are capable of reacting with the reactive electrophilic groups of the electrophilic polyoxazoline under the formation of a covalent bond between the electrophilic polyoxazoline and the nucleophilic polymer. When applied to a bleeding site, the haemostatic powder of the present invention turns into a gel while at the same time binding to proteins present in the blood and on the surrounding tissue.

    摘要: A process of preparing an adhesive haemostatic product is provided. The process comprises: (a) coating a porous solid substrate with a coating liquid that comprises an electrophilically activated polyoxazoline (EL-POX) and a solvent to produce a coated substrate; and (b) removing the solvent from the coated substrate. The EL-POX comprises at least 2 reactive electrophilic groups. The process enables the application of an EL-POX coating that leaves the pore structure of the substrate largely intact so that the ability of the porous substrate to absorb body fluids, such as blood, remains essentially unaffected. The EL-POX coated haemostatic product obtained by the present process has excellent adhesive properties due to the presence of electrophilic reactive groups that are capable of reacting with e.g. amine groups that are naturally present in tissue, under the formation of covalent bonds.

    摘要: The invention relates to a biocompatible, flexible, haemostatic sheet comprising: a water-resistant cohesive fibrous carrier structure comprising a three-dimensional interconnected interstitial space, said fibrous carrier structure comprising fibres containing a nucleophilic polymer carrying reactive nucleophilic groups; and distributed within the interstitial space, a plurality of reactive polymer particles comprising a water-soluble electrophilic polymer carrying at least three reactive electrophilic groups that are capable of reacting with amine groups in tissue and blood, as well as with reactive nucleophilic groups of the nucleophilic polymer, under the formation of a covalent bond, said reactive polymer particles having a diameter in the range of 0.5-100 μm and being present in an amount of at least 3% by weight of the fibrous carrier structure. When blood is absorbed by the haemostatic sheet of the present invention, the reactive polymer particles within the sheet start dissolving as soon as they are ‘wetted’ by the blood, thereby allowing the electrophilic polymer to react with both reactive nucleophilic groups in the blood and tissue and reactive nucleophilic groups in the fibrous carrier structure, thereby inducing blood coagulation and tissue sealing, both of which contribute to haemostasis.
