Properties of polyvinyl pyrrolidone/beta-chitosan hydrogel membranes and their biocompatibility evaluation by haemorheological method.
The semi-IPN hydrogel membranes of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and beta-chitosan were synthesized by crosslinking beta-chitosan with glutaraldehyde. Hydrogel membranes were characterized by spectroscopic, swelling, thermal and mechanical properties. The in vitro biocompatibility of hydrogel membranes was studied by haemorheological method. These hydrogels have water contents in the range of 60-...
متن کاملAnisotropic polyvinyl alcohol hydrogel for cardiovascular applications.
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a hydrophilic polymer with various characteristics desired for biomedical applications and can be transformed into a solid hydrogel by physical crosslinking, using a low-temperature thermal cycling process. As with most polymeric materials, the mechanical properties of the resultant PVA are isotropic, as oppose to most soft tissues, which are anisotropic. The objectiv...
متن کاملMetoprolol tartrate Containing Glutaraldehyde Cross-linked Chitosan- Polyvinyl pyrrolidone Matrix Transdermal Patch: Preparation and Characterization
The present study was undertaken to develop a suitable transdermal matrix patch of Metoprolol tartrate with different proportions of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) and chitosan crosslinked with glutaraldehyde (GA). The prepared transdermal patches were subjected to different physicochemical evaluations such as thickness, tensile strength, folding endurance, drug content, swellability, surface pH, ...
متن کاملPolyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) in cataract surgery.
Early reformation of the anterior chamber after intraocular surgery is of paramount importance, its absence or delay leading to peripheral anterior synechiae and aphakic glaucoma (Troncoso, 1933; Kronfeld and Grossman, 1941; McLean, I94I; Meyer and Sternberg, 1950). Selinger (1937) injected air after cataract operations to restore the normal curvature of the cornea. He concluded that air preven...
