Polyvinylpyrrolidone-Alginate Film Barriers for Abdominal Surgery: Anti-Adhesion Effect in Murine Model. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:5532.

Abstract
Surgical operations on the peritoneum are often associated with the formation of adhesions, which can interfere with the normal functioning of the internal organs. The effectiveness of existing barrier materials is relatively low. In this work, the effectiveness of soluble alginate-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP-Alg) and non-soluble Ca ion cross-linked (PVP-Alg-Ca) films in preventing these adhesions was evaluated. Experiments in vivo were performed on mice via mechanical injury to the adjacent peritoneum wall and the caecum, followed by the application of PVP-Alg or PVP-Alg-Ca films to the injured area. After 7 days, samples from the peritoneal wall and caecum were analyzed using histology and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). It was shown that the expression of genes responsible for adhesion formation in the caecum in the PVP-Alg group was comparable to that in the control group, while in the PVP-Alg-Ca group, it increased by 5-10 times. These results were consistent with the histology: in the PVP-Alg group, the adhesions did not form, while in the PVP-Alg-Ca group, the adhesions corresponded to five points on the adhesion scale. Therefore, the formation of intraperitoneal adhesions can be effectively prevented by non-crosslinked, biodegradable PVP-Alg films, whereas cross-linked, not biodegradable PVP-Alg-Ca films cause inflammation and adhesion formation.

Abstract
Nanoporous microparticles prepared from poly(ether imide) (PEI) are discussed as candidate adsorber materials for the removal of uremic toxins during apheresis. Polymers exhibiting such porosity can induce the formation of micro-gas/air pockets when exposed to fluids. Such air presenting material surfaces are reported to induce platelet activation and thrombus formation. Physical or chemical treatments prior to implantation are discussed to reduce the formation of such gas nuclei. Here, we report about the influence of different rewetting procedures - as chemical treatments with solvents - on the thrombogenicity of hydrophobic PEI microparticles and PEI microparticles hydrophilized by covalent attachment of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) of two different chain lengths.Autoclaved dry PEI particles of all types with a diameter range of 200 - 250 μm and a porosity of about 84% ±2% were either rewetted directly with phosphate buffered saline (24 h) or after immersion in an ethanol-series. Thrombogenicity of the particles was studied in vitro upon contact with human sodium citrated whole blood for 60 min at 5 rpm vertical rotation. Numbers of non-adherent platelets were quantified, and adhesion of blood cells was qualitatively analyzed by bright field microscopy. Platelet activation (percentage of CD62P positive platelets and amounts of soluble P-Selectin) and platelet function (PFA100 closure times) were analysed.Retention of blood platelets on the particles was similar for all particle types and both rewetting procedures. Non-adherent platelets were less activated after contact with ethanol-treated particles of all types compared to those rewetted with phosphate buffered saline as assessed by a reduced number of CD62P-positive platelets and reduced amounts of secreted P-Selectin (P < 0.05 each). Interestingly, the hydrophilic surfaces significantly increased the number of activated platelets compared to hydrophobic PEI regardless of the rewetting agent. This suggests that, apart from wettability, other material properties might be more important to regulate platelet activation. PFA100 closure times were reduced and within the reference ranges in the ethanol group, however, significantly increased in the saline group. No substantial difference was detected between the tested surface modifications. In summary, rewetting with ethanol resulted in a reduced thrombogenicity of all studied microparticles regardless of their wettability, most likely resulting from the evacuation of air from the nanoporous particles.

Abstract
Multi jet fusion (MJF) technology has proven its significance in recent years as this technology has continually increased its market share. Recently, polypropylene (PP) was introduced by Hewlett-Packard for the given technology. To our knowledge, little is known about the mechanical properties of polypropylene processed by MJF technology. During this study, standardised specimens were printed under all of the major orientations of the machine’s build space. Each of these orientations were represented by five samples. The specimens then underwent tensile, bending and Charpy impact tests to analyse their mechanical properties. The structural analysis was conducted to determine whether PP powder may be reused within the MJF process. The mechanical tests showed that the orientation of the samples significantly influences their mechanical response and must be carefully chosen to obtain the optimal mechanical properties of PP samples. We further showed that PP powder may be reused as the MJF process does not significantly alter its thermal and structural properties.

Abstract
To use implantable biomedical devices such as electrocardiograms and neurostimulators in the human body, it is necessary to package them with biocompatible materials that protect the internal electronic circuits from the body’s internal electrolytes and moisture without causing foreign body reactions. Herein, we describe a hydrogel surface-modified polyurethane copolymer film with concurrent water permeation resistance and biocompatibility properties for application to an implantable biomedical device. To achieve this, hydrophobic polyurethane copolymers comprising hydrogenated poly(ethylene-co-butylene) (HPEB) and aliphatic poly(carbonate) (PC) were synthesized and their hydrophobicity degree and mechanical properties were adjusted by controlling the copolymer composition ratio. When 10 wt% PC was introduced, the polyurethane copolymer exhibited hydrophobicity and water permeation resistance similar to those of HPEB; however, with improved mechanical properties. Subsequently, a hydrophilic poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) hydrogel layer was formed on the surface of the polyurethane copolymer film by Fenton reaction using an initiator and crosslinking agent and the effect of the initiator and crosslinking agent immobilization time, PVP concentration and crosslinking agent concentration on the hydrogel properties were investigated. Finally, MTT assay showed that the hydrogel surface-modified polyurethane copolymer film displays excellent biocompatibility.

Abstract
The presented study describes a method for the preparation and modification of cylindrical polyurethane structures with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel coating. The modified polyurethane scaffolds were fabricated using the phase-inversion technique and intended to be used as a vascular prosthesis. The proposed modification method involves a two-step Fenton-type reaction. Physicochemical analysis (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy) confirmed the presence of the hydrogel coating. The influence of PVP and polymerization initiator (cumene hydroperoxide) concentrations on hydrogel's properties were examined. The higher concentrations of reagent were used, the thicker coating was obtained. After modification, the material's surface becomes more hydrophilic in comparison to pristine polyurethane. Cytotoxicity assay (MTT test) confirmed that PVP-coating is not toxic. The introduction of hydrogel coating resulted in a significant decrease in the fibrinogen adsorbed to the material's surface as compared to a non-modified polymer. Platelet adhesion assay demonstrated almost no platelet adhesion to the modified surfaces.
