FLOWABLE COLLAGEN COLLOID AND METHOD OF FORMING
A hemostatic colloid and method of forming a hemostatic colloid for dispensing into a wound site to control bleeding is provided. The hemostatic colloid is comprised of collagen in microfibril, crystalline, powder or granular form and is mixed with a liquid thrombin solution to form a flowable collagen/thrombin hemostatic colloid.
Collagen gel formulations
The present inventors have developed printable collagen bioinks using unmodified type I collagen with mechanical and structural properties that facilitate application to tissue in a structured form. In particular, the compositions of the present invention may be used to apply collagen gels to tissue (e.g. eye) using two- or three-dimensional (extrusion) bioprinting techniques.
Sol for tissue perforation closure, ulcer protection, and vascular embolization
The purpose of the present invention is to provide an injectable sol into a body, suited for delivery through a catheter, and usable for tissue perforation closure, ulcer protection, or vascular embolization. Provided are a sol for tissue perforation closure, a sol for ulcer protection, and a sol for vascular embolization, each containing from 0.6 mass % to 3 mass % of a collagen, water, from 200 mM to 330 mM sodium chloride, and a buffer and having a pH from 6.0 to 9.0.
HYDRATABLE AND FLOWABLE IMPLANTABLE COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THEM
Implantable bone compositions are provided. The implantable compositions comprise hydratable bone putties. The hydratable bone putties comprise porous ceramic granules having an average diameter from about 50 μm to 800 μm and the composition has a texture value above about 1000. The porous ceramic granules comprise hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate. The implantable bone compositions further include collagen carriers. In some embodiments, the hydratable bone putty can be hydrated to form a non-settable flowable cohesive cement or gel. Methods of making and using the implantable compositions are also provided.
BIOMATERIAL COMPRISING A RESORBABLE POROUS MATRIX AND ASSOCIATED MANUFACTURING METHOD
A biomaterial including a resorbable porous matrix formed from a material including collagen, and exhibiting an inner volume and an outer surface. Advantageously, the biomaterial includes at least one type of living biological cells of a tissue, disposed in the inner volume and alternatively or complementarily on the surface of the porous matrix. The biomaterial forms a tissue substitute being close to a native tissue, in particular in terms of biological structure present in the tissue, and physiological functions.
Composition for hemostasis and container comprising same
The present invention relates to a composition for hemostasis which contains collagen, stabilizer, and thrombin, and a container including the same. The present invention is applicable to a bleeding patient requiring emergency treatment with a simple method of use. There is no toxicity and no problem of blood infection. A biodegradation rate is fast. In this regard, the present invention achieves an excellent hemostatic effect. Therefore, the composition for hemostasis is useful as a hemostat.
Use of photosynthetic scaffolds in tissue engineering
The present invention is concerned with a photosynthetic scaffold that delivers oxygen and its uses for tissue engineering and the treatment of ischemia.
PREPARATION METHOD FOR AND USE METHOD OF COLLAGEN MICROFIBER HEMOSTATIC MATERIAL
Disclosed in the present invention are a preparation method for and a use method of a collagen microfiber hemostatic material. Collagen microfibers are obtained by performing high-speed shearing on a solid collagen material, after the collagen microfibers are dispersed in an aqueous phase, a procoagulant active ingredient modifies the surfaces of the collagen microfibers by means of linking molecules; and a collagen microfiber hemostatic material is obtained by performing high-speed shearing again after freeze drying. The collagen microfiber material can be prepared simply and efficiently by means of high-speed shearing; the biological activity of the collagen material is maintained as much as possible; and the microfibers have a length range of 10-1000 μm and high dispersibility, thus facilitating spray processing. The procoagulant active ingredient can be efficiently and quantitatively loaded on the surfaces of the collagen microfibers by means of the linking molecules to enhance the hemostatic effect of the collagen microfibers. The collagen microfiber hemostatic material prepared in the present invention can be used for hemostasis of a bleeding wound by means of spraying application, thereby achieving the effect of non-contact fixed-point hemostasis.
