摘要:
This invention relates to a hemostatic agent used in surgical operations, which can be produced in two ways: one blending collagen/gelatin with protamine, the other blending collagen/gelatin with protamine and a bi-functional cross-linking agent so as to make said collagen/gelatin have a covalent bond with said protamine. The produced hemostatic agent can stop bleeding within far less time than a conventional hemostatic agent made out of pure collagen.

This invention concerns a production process of an antithrombogenic and antiadhesive material which can favorably be used as artificial blood vessels, artificial valves, grafting patches for cardiovascular organs, artificial heart catheters and so on. The gist of this invention is constructed substantially of subjecting glycidyltrialkylammonium halide such as glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride to the reaction with a material comprising pure collagen or collagen and other components like mucopolysaccharide in order to introduce a cationic quaternary functional group in collagen molecules of the material and then subjecting heparin to the ionic combination with the cationic functional group introduced. Meanwhile, in advance of the above chemical treatment, the material is prepared from dog's blood vessel by removing proteins except collagen, from cow's Achilles tendon by crushing into powder, from human amnion by rinsing in distilled water or from polyester knit tube by coating its inside with powdered collagen, for example.

摘要:
An antithrombogenic medical material with a remarkable antithrombogenic property and histocompatibility as well as sufficient physical strength, formed by fixing a heparinized collagen to a synthetic polymer material is provided. And a method of preparing an antithrombogenic medical material is provided, wherein a synthetic polymer material is subjected to a coating or impregnating treatment with a collagen-containing solution, followed by heparinization of the collagen, and the heparinized collagen is fixed to the synthetic polymer material. This method allows manufacturing of antithrombogenic medical material with ease.
摘要:
The medical material according to this invention contains collagen, which as been chemically modified by saccinylation of thermal --NH.sub.2 groups of said chains attached to poly peptide chains of the collagen so that the --NH.sub.2 groups are converted into groups having --COOH groups. This succinylation can be carried out by reacting succinic anhydride with the --NH.sub.2 groups of the collagen. Since the above medical material has excellent compatibility with living bodies, especially, with blood, it is suitable to use it as a replacement material for tissues and/or organs which are kept in contact with blood at their surfaces, namely, is suitable for use in artificial blood vessels, artificial valves, some parts of artificial hearts which are kept in contact with blood at said parts, etc. and as a patching material for hearts.
摘要:
The medical material contains heparinized collagen in which heparin has been bonded to protamine covalently fixed on collagen, and, owing to its excellent compatibility with living bodies, especially, its superb antithrombotic property, can be suitably used as a substituent material for tissues or organs which are brought into direct contact with blood, namely, as aritificial vessels, artificial valves and patching materials for cardiovascular organs, and the above medical material is also suitable as a membrane having anti-adhesion effects. The medical material is obtained by immersing and treating a natural or artificial material successively in an aqueous protamine solution, an aqueous glutaraldehyde solution and an aqueous heparin solution.

[Problems] To provide a medical material having such a structure that enables even diffusion and distribution in the material of a sufficient amount a substance necessary for a medical treatment.[Means for Solving Problems] A medical material 10 composed of a porous three-dimensional construct 11, which is a rectangular parallelepiped having a porosity of from 20 to 97% and pores 12, 13, 14 and 15 provided in the main body. From this pore 12, a substance such as calcium phosphate or ceramics apatite and/or a physiologically active cell, tissue or protein and a substance suitable for exerting the functions thereof are introduced.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a prosthesis comprising one or more bioabsorbable substances insolubilized and/or immobilized in place by a physical method which excludes chemical reagents. A growth factor can be bound to the bioabsorbable substance for simulating growth of, for example, fibroblast and endothelial cells, around and into the prosthesis. The invention can include a porous fabric substrate having the bioabsorbable substance(s) insolubilized and immobilized therewithin by one or more of the physical methods. The physical method can include entanglement, dry-up, thermal crosslinkng, gamma irradiation, ultraviolet irradiation, or swelling up by hyper hydration with electric charge. The invention excludes the use of conventional chemical reagents, such as glutaraldehyde or formaldehyde, which are toxic. Since the invention does not use the chemical reagents of the prior art, it can avoid the toxicity and foreign body reaction problems associated therewith. The prosthesis of the invention does not have blood leakage and provides an excellent antithrombogenicity by rapid completion of neointima formation with endothelial cell lining at an early stage after implantation.
