Title: Medical film comprising gelatin and reinforcing material
Inventor: TADOKORO HIDEKI
IPC: A61L31/04
Filed: 2003-12-08
Abstract: It is intended to provide a medical film which is excellent in biocompatibility and bioabsorbability and has a high strength in suturing an d bonding. A reinforcing material (12) made of a biodegradable and bioabsorbab le polymer is located in a gelatin solution. After allowing the solution to penetrate into the reinforcing material (12), the gelatin is dried. Thus, th e gelatin having penetrated into the reinforcing material (12) sets to gel to thereby form a gelatin film (11) so that a medical film (1 )composed of the reinforcing material (12) and the gelatin film (11) integrated together can be obtained. It is preferable that the above-described gelatin film (11) is a crosslinked gelatin film.
