Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method of manufacturing a medical stent for releasing medical drugs and a medical stent for releasing medical drugs using the same method are provided, which have the nano-structured pattern using the plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition. CONSTITUTION: A method of manufacturing medical stent for releasing medical drug having the nano-structured pattern includes: a step of coating the surface of stent with the biodegradable polymer; a step of forming the nano-structured pattern on the surface of the stent coated with the biodegradable polymer through the ion beam or the plasma process using the method of plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition; and a step of dipping the medical drugs within the biodegradable polymer in which the nano-structured pattern is formed. The biodegradable polymer is the biodegradable polymer in which the medical drugs are dipped.
Abstract:
A method for preparing a biodegradable porous polymer scaffold having hydroxyapatite on the surface is provided to produce the biodegradable porous polymer scaffolds having improved cell affinity and osteoconductivity in a simple and effective manner. A method for preparing a biodegradable porous polymer scaffold having hydroxyapatite on the surface includes the steps of: (1) graft-polymerizing a functional group-containing hydrophilic monomer on the surface of a biodegradable porous polymer scaffold; and (2) immersing the obtained functional group-containing polymer scaffold in a simulated body fluid solution to form hydroxyapatite on the surface of the scaffold. The functional group-containing hydrophilic monomer is selected from the group consisting of organic acids having carboxylic acids at the terminals, monomers having phosphoric acids at the terminals, and mixtures thereof.
Abstract:
A cardiovascular system transplanting metallic material is provided to improve blood compatibility by modifying the surface of the metallic material with a sulfobetaine poly(ethylene glycol) derivative having anions. A metallic material has improved blood compatibility by modifying a surface of the metallic material with a sulfobetaine poly(ethylene glycol) derivative of the formula 1, X-R1-PEG-R1-Y, where R1 is one or more functional groups connected by urethane, urea, amide, ester, ether or anhydride comprising 0 to 20 alkyl groups or aryl groups; X is -NCO or -CHO; and Y is sulfobetaine(-N^+ -R2 -SO3^-) as a zwitterionic derivative, wherein R2 is an alkyl group or an aryl group. A manufacturing method of a metallic material of which surface is modified with a sulfobetaine poly(ethylene glycol) derivative comprises the steps of: oxidizing the surface of the metallic material to introduce a hydroxyl group(-OH) into the surface thereof; and chemically bonding the sulfobetaine poly(ethylene glycol) derivative to the hydroxyl group of the metallic material surface.
