摘要:
A laminated structure in which a superabsorbent material is provided as a layer of discrete discontinuous chunks or elements attached to a continuous porous support layer. The superabsorbent element is provided by saturating a porous substrate with an acrylic acid monomer solution, polymerizing and crosslinking the monomer in the web, and then dicing the monomer/web substrate to produce discrete superabsorbent elements. The superabsorbent elements having various shaped are then affixed to the flexible porous support layer by friction so as to provide the flexible superabsorbent laminated structure.

Adhesive tape for use in connection with treatment of injuries is described. Tape may be configured to relieve pressure and increase circulation at the injury site, as well as deliver a topical drug solution, including NSAID solutions. Elements such as drug solutions, adhesive, water soluble gels, and so forth may be disposed in patterns configured to increase efficacy and user comfort.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a new form of biocompatible materials (e.g., lipids, polycations, polysaccharides) which are capable of undergoing free radical polymerization, e.g., by using certain sources of light; methods of modifying certain synthetic and naturally occurring biocompatible materials to make polymerizable microcapsules containing biological material coated with said polymerizable materials, composites of said polymerizable materials, methods of making microcapsules and encapsulating biological materials therein, and apparatus for making microcapsules containing biological cells (particularly islets of Langerhans) coated with polymerizable alginate or with a composite thereof (e.g., alginate and PEG). The present invention also relates to drug delivery systems relating to the foregoing, as well as bioadhesives and wound dressings made utilizing the foregoing technology.

摘要:
The invention relates to a wound dresssing comprising (1) a lower layer of a hydrogel of a polymer cross-linked under the influence of electron beam (E.B.) radiation, to which optionally one or more medicinal and/or antibacterial agents and/or one or more auxiliary substances have been added, and (2) a polymeric top layer, in which the top layer consists at least substantially of an elastomer selected from the group consisting of a silicone rubber, a polyetherpolyurethane copolymer, a polyester-polyurethane copolymer, a polyether-polyester copolymer and an optionally modified block copolymer based on suitable vinyl monomers, and that a fibrous layer is provided between the lower layer and the top layer for bonding the two layers together.The invention further relates to a method of preparing said wound dressing.
