摘要:
An adhesion preventive kit and a method of preventing adhesion are provided which have a preventive effect on adhesion in a surrounding part of an edge of an injured or deficient tissue in guided regeneration therapy for an injured tissue. Specifically, the adhesion preventive kit includes: (A) a first membrane of at least two layers having a biodegradable base layer and an adhesion preventive layer provided respectively at outermost surfaces thereof and a second membrane of at least one layer having an adhesion preventive layer provided at an outermost surface thereof, or (B) an adhesion preventive membrane including a biodegradable base layer and an adhesion preventive layer, which membrane has an outermost surface constituted of the adhesion preventive layer and has a tissue sandwiching part.
摘要:
An adhesion preventive membrane including a nonwoven fabric layer of collagen fibers, having on a surface thereof a coating layer containing a mixture of collagen and hyaluronic acid, or a method of producing a continuous collagen single strand, wherein a strand-like collagen is dehydrated/coagulated in a hydrophilic organic solvent having a water content of about 10% or less and then dried under conditions of a relative humidity of about 50% or less and a temperature of about 42° C. or less. A collagen nonwoven fabric of first and second layers composed of a plurality of collagen strand-like materials spun out of a solubilized collagen solution, and arranged in parallel, the first and second layers being laminated and bonded to each other so that directions of arrangements of the strand-like materials of the first and the second layers are at an angle therebetween.
摘要:
In order to provide a substrate for medical applications, which may be freely elastically deformed depending on a shape of a defective portion or hemostasis portion in a living body, is biocompatible and suitable for tissue regeneration or cell proliferation, or hemostasis, and can be easily manufactured. A collagen substrate of the present invention includes a three-dimensional mesh formed of spun collagen filaments. Preferably, the collagen substrate of the present invention includes cotton formed of spun collagen filaments.

摘要:
A biodegradable substrate usable as a prosthetic material (i.e., for tissue regeneration) facilitates the invasion of cells into a substrate and has a thick structure similar to woven fabrics. The biodegradable substrate is obtained by stitching a biodegradable nonwoven fabric with a biodegradable thread. An embodiment of the nonwoven fabric used is a material wherein first and second layers, each having filaments of a thread made of collagen located in parallel, are laminated and adhered to each other so that the alignment direction of the filaments of the thread in the first and second layer are arranged at a certain angle. This nonwoven fabric is stitched with a thread made of collagen. In another embodiment a filmy material having been treated with a biodegradable binder such as collagen or gelatin is piled on the nonwoven fabric and stitched.
摘要:
A method of sterilizing a biocompatible material with which decomposition and deterioration in a process of radiation sterilization can be suppressed by hermetically wrapping the biocompatible material together with a deoxidizer with a nonbreathable wrapping material and subjecting the resultant to radiation sterilization. The method suppresses decomposition and deterioration of the material in a process of radiation sterilization. More particularly, the method can reduce the effects of decomposition and deterioration on decomposition time of the biocompatible material in living organisms.
