A bone cement paste containing a powder component comprising α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) particles having an average size greater than or equal to 9 μm, and a liquid component comprising blood is disclosed. A method for preparation of the phosphocalcic cement composition is also disclosed.

The present invention relates to methods for adhering tissue surfaces and materials and biomedical uses thereof. In particular the present invention relates to a method for adhering a first tissue surface to a second tissue surface in a subject in need thereof, comprising the steps of adsorbing a layer of nanoparticles on at least one of the tissue surfaces, and approximating the surfaces for a time sufficient for allowing the surfaces to adhere to each other. The present invention also relates to a method for adhering a material to a biological tissue in a subject in need thereof, comprising the steps of adsorbing a layer of nanoparticles on the surface of the material and/or the biological tissue and approximating the material and the biological tissue for a time sufficient for allowing the material and the biological tissue to adhere to each other.

Disclosed are a biosealant system and method for treatment of a pulmonary air leak comprising applying the biosealant system to the locus of the air leak.

The present invention discloses a blood coagulation-promoting silk fibroin-polypeptide electrospun membrane and a preparation method thereof. The electrospun membrane is made by using silkworm silk fibroin as a carrier and adding the polypeptide GPRPPSEHLQIT. It is mainly used for promoting blood coagulation, and is a blood coagulation material that can targetedly bind to human fibrinogen. The preparation method includes the steps of dissolving, filtering, dialyzing, concentrating and freeze-drying silkworm cocoons after degumming to obtain silk fibroin freeze-dried powder. The polypeptide used in the present invention is a polypeptide obtained by self-screening. Compared with other polypeptides, it can specifically targetedly bind to human fibrinogen.

The present invention relates to biocompatible compositions comprising one or more crystallin proteins, and the use of such compositions in therapeutic and research methods, for example in surgical methods, in sustained release drug delivery, and in cell-based methods.

An antibacterial medical biomaterial includes an acellular small intestinal submucosal matrix material, an antibacterial gel layer located on a surface of the acellular small intestinal submucosal matrix material, and an absorbable fiber layer located on a surface of the antibacterial gel layer. Sulfadiazine silver is on the surface of the acellular small intestinal submucosal matrix material and/or within the acellular small intestinal submucosal matrix material. An absorbable fiber layer to which the sulfadiazine silver is attached, wherein the content of sulfadiazine silver in the absorbable fiber is 1 wt. %˜2 wt. %. The medical biomaterial is usable as an external medicine for treating wound infections relayed by burns or wounds, and for reducing the incidence of infection by using a conventional central venous catheter with a sulfadiazine silver antibacterial coating, so that the medical biomaterial loaded with sulfadiazine silver also has antibacterial activity consistent with sulfadiazine silver.

Provided herein are settable surgical compositions and methods for their intraoperative use.

Provided is a radiation sterilization resistant adhesive agent layer capable of reducing or preventing a decrease in wettability of an adhesive after radiation sterilization treatment. The adhesive can be used with a medical implement, for example medical implements that are sterilized. The adhesive agent layer includes a (meth)acrylic polymer and a wettability stabilizer, and the wettability stabilizer is at least one selected from a rosin ester resin, a terpene phenol resin, and hydrides thereof.

The present invention relates to new plasma or new platelet-rich plasma preparations, new cell dissociation methods, new cell associations or compositions, a method of preparation thereof, a use thereof, devices for the preparation thereof and preparations containing such a platelet-rich plasma preparation and cell associations or compositions. Specifically, the invention provides plasma or platelet-rich plasma alone or in cell composition preparations for use in tissue regeneration and bone regeneration and pain reduction.

This document provides methods and materials for treating a mammal (e.g., a human) having one or more tumors. For example, embolic agents including an amnion tissue preparation (e.g., amnion coated embolic agents) that can be used in arterial embolization to reduce or eliminate blood flow in a blood vessel that supplies a tumor are provided.
