Medical devices with sealing properties
The present disclosure relates to a medical device and methods of using the same. In embodiments, the medical device may be a buttress formed of nucleophilic buttress components and electrophilic buttress components which react to both form the buttress and provide the buttress with self-sealing capabilities after a staple or some other fixation device is placed therethrough, thereby enhancing its hemostatic properties. In other embodiments, the medical device is a hernia patch formed of a fibrous substrate, nucleophilic precursor components and electrophilic precursor components.
CELLULOSE ACETATE BASED NON-WOVEN NANOFIBER MATRIX WITH HIGH ABSORBENCY PROPERTIES FOR FEMALE HYGIENE PRODUCTS
The main objective of the present invention is to demonstrate a biocompatible polymer matrix in feminine hygiene products. Another objective of the invention is to produce the biocompatible polymer matrix in the form of non-woven nanofibers so as to enhance the properties such as surface area, absorption rate, tensile strength etc. Yet another objective of the present invention is to study the effect of SAP on the absorpotion capacity of absorbent matrix prepared as mentioned above. Accordingly, the present invention discloses an eco-friendly sanitary napkin characterized with absorbancy core having enhanced properties like absorbancy, tensile strength etc., without addition of SAP.
