The technology described herein is directed to compositions comprising at least a first porous biomaterial layer and a second impermeable biomaterial layer and methods relating thereto. In some embodiments, the compositions and methods described herein relate to wound healing, e.g. repair of wounds and/or tissue defects.

The present disclosure relates to a dry composition which reconstitutes without mechanical mixing to form a flowable paste having a soft and light consistency suitable for use in haemostasis and wound healing procedures upon addition of an aqueous medium. The disclosure further relates to methods of preparing the dry composition, methods for reconstituting the dry composition and medical use of the composition.

The disclosure provides a hemostatic fabric containing trypsin, wherein the hemostatic fabric comprises molecular sieve/fiber composite and trypsin; molecular sieve/fiber composite comprises molecular sieves and a fiber; the molecular sieves are independently dispersed on a fiber surface of the fiber without agglomeration and directly contact the fiber surface; a surface of the molecular sieve contacted with the fiber is an inner surface, and a surface of the molecular sieve uncontacted with the fiber is an outer surface; growth-matched coupling is formed between the molecular sieves and the fiber on the inner surface of the molecular sieves; the inner surface and outer surface are composed of molecular sieve nanoparticles. In the present disclosure, trypsin is specifically combined with the molecular sieve/fiber composite, which maintains a high procoagulant activity, thereby obtaining a hemostatic fabric with excellent coagulation effect.

The present invention relates to an external dressing as well as a preparation method and application thereof. The external dressing includes: A. a solvent, which is a mixture including normal saline and an HP value regulator, B. a natural polymer as a thickener; and C. urokinase, the content of which is 0.05-50,000 U/ml. Experiments in mice prove that the present invention has obvious curative effect on wound rehabilitation, and has the advantages of easy realization and operation, fewer side effects and benefit for popularization and application.

Provided herein are enzymatically decellularized cells, and methods of producing said cells, that can be used in a scaffold. The scaffolds featured herein are biocompatible and can comprise decellularized cells that have been modified to express a bioactive agent or molecule.

The method for decellularization of kidney tissue according to the present invention, the decellularized material produced through the method, and a bioink comprising the decellularized material have the effect of maximizing the effect of kidney treatment by maximizing the content of components specialized for kidney treatment such as the collecting duct and renal tubule of the kidney.

The present disclosure provides compositions, methods, and kits that enable the in situ growth of polymers on or within a subject. In some aspects, the monomer, dopamine, polymerizes in vivo to form a polymer on a tissue. In additional aspects, the compositions, methods, and kits are useful for treating or preventing a disease or disorder.

The present disclosure relates to methods of treating or preventing a biofilm-related infection and methods of preventing and treating biofilm formation on indwelling medical devices, implants, and non-medical surfaces comprising administering at least one soluble microbial protein that is encoded by an exopolysaccharide biosynthetic operon or functional gene cluster, wherein the protein comprises a glycosyl hydrolase domain. The present disclosure further provides particular soluble glycosyl hydrolases and compositions thereof.

Adhesive wound dressing that comprises an absorbent matrix (A) adhering to the central portion of a polyurethane backing (B) having an adhesive layer for the skin, said matrix (A) comprising: a. a breathable and porous polyethylene film at the end designed to come into contact with the wound; b. an absorbent layer made of non-woven fabric adjacent to film a), said absorbent layer consisting of: i. 60-65% viscose ii. 25-30% polyester iii. 5-15% polypropylene; c. a layer of polyethylene inserted between layer b) and a layer d. of hydrophobic polystyrene, the latter being in contact with the central portion of polyurethane backing (B); wherein matrix (A) is impregnated with a solution of one or more polysaccharides or the salts thereof.

A condom for detection of STDs, including an interior condom surface having a control band and a test band, and an exterior condom surface that also has a control band and test band. Each test band allows binding and subsequent detection of STD antigens. A separate developing antibody produces a color change if bound to the antigen/antibody conjugate. The developing antibody may be present on the condom or applied separately after use.
