author keywords: VASCULAR PROSTHESES; POLYURETHANES; SAMPLE CLEANING; EXPLANTED PROSTHESES; ENZYME
MeSH headings : Animals; Blood Vessel Prosthesis; Calorimetry, Differential Scanning; Chemical Phenomena; Chemistry, Physical; Collagenases; Dogs; Microscopy, Electron, Scanning; Pancreatin; Polyurethanes / analysis; Polyurethanes / chemistry; Prostheses and Implants; Spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared; Spectrum Analysis; Trypsin
topics (OpenAlex): Bone Tissue Engineering Materials; Electrospun Nanofibers in Biomedical Applications; Orthopaedic implants and arthroplasty
TL;DR: It was found that the most successful approach for removing fresh tissue and exposing a clean and uncontaminated polyurethane surface was to incubate the explanted samples first in collagenase followed by digestion in pancreatin, which has proved valuable in enabling us to monitor small in vivo changes in the surface chemistry and in the bulk microphase segmented structure of polyurehane biomaterials.

THE SURFACE-COMPOSITION OF COMMERCIAL POLYESTER ARTERIAL PROSTHESES - AN XPS STUDY

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ARTIFICIAL ORGANS, 12(3), 189–194.

By: R. Paynter*, M. King* , R. Guidoin * & T. Rao*

topics (OpenAlex): Electron and X-Ray Spectroscopy Techniques; Corrosion Behavior and Inhibition; Orthopaedic implants and arthroplasty
TL;DR: The results indicate that certain prostheses were not manufactured with Dacrorf-like fibres, and that some exhibit significantly carbon-rich surfaces, which suggests that the surface of these devices has been modified either by a hydrocarbon lubricant or by vapour phase hydrocarbons during fabrication.

European Surgical Research, 20, 18–28.

By: S. Slimane*, R. Guidoin *, D. Marceau*, M. Sigot-Luizard* & M. King* 

MeSH headings : Aldehydes / pharmacology; Animals; Biocompatible Materials; Blood Vessel Prosthesis; Carbodiimides / pharmacology; Cross-Linking Reagents / pharmacology; Endothelium, Vascular / cytology; Ethyldimethylaminopropyl Carbodiimide / pharmacology; Glutaral / pharmacology; Microscopy, Electron, Scanning; Phagocytosis; Polyesters; Serum Albumin
topics (OpenAlex): Vascular Procedures and Complications; Infectious Aortic and Vascular Conditions; Polymer Surface Interaction Studies
TL;DR: A carbodiimide cross-linking agent appears more promising than glutaraldehyde, since it is equally effective in producing a blood impermeable prosthesis, yet presents improved biocompatibility and provokes a less intense inflammatory response from the host. (via Semantic Scholar)

MeSH headings : Angiography; Animals; Aorta, Thoracic / surgery; Bibliographies as Topic; Blood Vessel Prosthesis; Dogs; Kidney / pathology; Microscopy, Electron, Scanning; Polyesters; Polyethylene Terephthalates; Thrombosis / chemically induced
topics (OpenAlex): Infectious Aortic and Vascular Conditions; Aortic Disease and Treatment Approaches; Aortic aneurysm repair treatments
TL;DR: It is believed that the healing process is far more host dependent than graft dependent, and the grafts did exhibit differences in structural stability depending on whether they were of a knitted or woven construction. (via Semantic Scholar)
