Abstract: Collagen, such as, corium, is freed of pyrogenetic substances by processing green corium with aqueous solutions of alkalie or alkaline earth metal hypochlorites, washing with aqueous ethanol and subsequently washing with pyrogen free water.
Abstract: Non-woven, liquid-laid, fibrous web having hemostatic and adhesive properties adapted to seal a wound formed of fibers consisting of an ionizable, water-insoluble, partial salt of collagen, the web when placed on a saline solution disintegrating completely and the fibers self disperse. The web is formed from a slurry of the fibers in a water-miscible organic liquid such as ethanol containing a small proportion of an ionizable acid.

Abstract: There are disclosed, as novel compounds, high molecular weight hindered phenols based on the condensation of a nitroalkane with either formaldehyde and a di-t-butylphenol or with a substituted derivative of a di-t-butylphenol. The compounds are generally useful as antioxidants for a wide variety of organic substrates.
