摘要:
This invention concerns a double-layered man-made skin which is prepared by laminating a collagen sponge sheet and a poly-.alpha.-amino acid membrane that has a good affinity with tissue cells and an appropriate permeability for moisture. When the man-made skin is applied on burns, cuts or wounds, the fibroblasts proliferate in the collagen sponge sheet forming a three-dimensional structure, while the epidermal cells proliferate in the region between the poly-.alpha.-amino acid membrane and a collagen sponge sheet. The poly-.alpha.-amino acid membrane plays a role in protecting affected part and in providing an optimum condition for the proliferation of fibroblasts and epidermal cells, and then it falls off as the epidermis completely regenerates. On the other hand, the collagen sponge sheet assimilates in the living tissue after having played a general role of the dermis.

This invention relates to a surfactant with less toxicity and irritation against the human body and a production process thereof. The surfactant is produced by the acylation of the side chain amino radicals of collagen or gelatine with an aliphatic acid having 2 to 26 carbon atoms; it is used as an emulsifier and an antiseptic for cosmetics.
摘要:
This invention relates to a surfactant composed of acylated collagen or acylated gelatine produced by the acylation of the side chain amino radicals of collagen or gelatine with an aliphatic acid having 2-26 carbon atoms and a dicarboxylic acid having 2-8 carbon atoms and a production process thereof. Since it has less toxicity and irritation against the human body and can dissolve in a neutral solution of pH 6-8 in the form of molecular dispersion, the surfactant is especially suitable for use in the field of cosmetic and foodstuff industries.
摘要:
An artifical skin comprising an insoluble atelocollagen sheet and an epidermal cell layer cultured only on one surface of the sheet, and a method of producing the same are disclosed, which method includes the steps of: forming an insoluble atelocollagen sheet; inoculating epidermal cells only on one surface of the atelocollagen sheet; and suspending the atelocollagen sheet in a liquid culture medium to culture the epidermal cells, thereby forming an epidermal cell layer.
摘要:
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:
A novel collagen condom consists of isotropically-strong, crosslinked, regenerated fiber collagen. A method of preparation involves the steps of at least twice dipping a mandrel into an acidic collagen dispersion; slowly removing the mandrel under spinning conditions; neutralizing and drying the membrane between dippings; crosslinking the finally dried membrane while on the mandrel and removing the membrane from the mandrel.
摘要:
A method for drying a wetted molded product of pasty high viscous composition which comprises subjecting the molded product to a dehydration process while wholly or partially contacting the product with an open-cell foamed hydrophobic porous membrane.
摘要:
A bioprosthetic valve made from a biological tissue containing collagen which has been cross-linked with a polyepoxy compound is disclosed. The valve has excellent biocompatibility and is durable and is free from calcification.
摘要:
A substratum for cell culture which comprises a chemically modified collagen rich in either positive or negative charges when under culture conditions. The substratum is prepared by modifying the amino groups or carboxyl groups of collagen. The chemically modified collagen enhances the adherence and proliferation of animal cells much more actively than unmodified collagen in the presence or absence of bovine fetus serum. The cultured animal cells can be detached efficiently from the chemically modified collagen. This allows for highly selective isolation and recovery of the cultured animal cells which can be accomplished without incurring any injury from the chemically modified collagen.
