}The influence of ethylene oxide gas treatment on the in vitro degradation behavior of noncrosslinked, glutaraldehyde crosslinked or hexamethylene diisocyanate crosslinked dermal sheep collagen (DSC) using bacterial collagenase is described. The results obtained were compared with the degradation behavior of either nonsterilized or gamma-sterilized DSC. Upon ethylene oxide sterilization, reaction of ethylene oxide with the free amine groups of DSC occurred, which resulted in a decreased helix…

Hydration studies have shown that, the EtO sterilised collagen sponge absorbed the greatest amount of deionised water after a period of 3 days, while the gamma sterilised gentamicin sulphate sponge completely dissolved after 24 hours, a good indication that gamma sterilisation breaks down cross-links or larger chains of the material, thus reducing the mechanical integrity of the sponge.

Although a pronounced effect on the physical properties of the collagen was found, there was no significant loss in the binding affinity for polymorphonuclear elastase, matrix metalloproteinase-2, and interleukin-1beta, or in the antioxidant capacity.

The data illustrate that the cross-linking method and the disinfection/sterilization treatment differentially affect the structural, biophysical, biochemical, and biological properties of collagen-based devices, and thus, they should be optimized according to the clinical indication.

The relative efficiency of microwave desorption compared to conventional aeration offers considerable gains in the cost-effectiveness of gas sterilization since it will permit a much greater throughput of material, thereby obviating the need for excessively large inventories of equipment.

The enzyme digestion study showed that the material exposed to a very high dosage of radiation resisted degradation by pronase, however, molecular weight analysis showed a significant number of peptide bonds being cleaved by the radiation which could cause considerable changes in the long-term characteristics of the material.

The overall fixation rate was found to be reaction-rate controlled, as the rate of fixation was relatively slow compared with the rateOf diffusion of PC, and the reaction rate was favored by a higher temperature, concentration, and solution pH.
