Abstract: A non-tubular material for nerve regeneration induction, which can be used for the regeneration of a damaged part in a nerve, and which comprises: (A) a crosslinked form produced by crosslinking a low-endotoxin bioabsorbable polysaccharide having a carboxyl group in the molecule with at least one crosslinkable reagent selected from a compound represented by general formula (I) and a salt thereof via covalent bonds; and (B) a bioabsorbable polymer. R1HN—(CH2)n—NHR2 (I) [wherein R1 and R2 independently represent a hydrogen atom or a group represented by formula: —COCH(NH2)—(CH2)4—NH2, and n represents an integer of 2 to 18]. Thus, a medical material that can induce the regeneration of a damaged part in a nerve is provided.

Abstract: Provided is a non-tubular brain damage recovery material which is used to cover and/or fill a damaged part of the brain, the brain damage recovery material including: (A) a cross-linked body with which a bioabsorbable polysaccharide having a carboxyl group in a low endotoxin molecule is covalently bonded and cross-linked with at least one crosslinking reagent selected from among a compound represented by general formula (I) and salts thereof; and (B) a bioabsorbable polymer. R1HN—(CH2)n—NHR2 (I) [in the formula, R1 and R2 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or a group represented by formula of —COCH(NH2)—CH2]4—NH2, and n represents an integer from 2 to 18]. Accordingly, provided is a medical material which can recover a damaged part of the brain.
