Abstract: A method for purifying fibrinogen includes steps of: (a) precipitating fibrinogen of a fibrinogen-containing solution by adding glycine to the solution for a concentration of glycine to be 1.5 to 2.5M, and then removing a supernatant and recovering a precipitate (1st glycine precipitation); (b) dissolving the precipitate of 1st glycine precipitation of step (a) in a dissolution buffer to obtain a solution, precipitating the solution by adding glycine thereto for a concentration of glycine to be 0.2 to 1.2M, and recovering a supernatant (2nd glycine precipitation); (c) precipitating the supernatant of step (b) by adding glycine thereto for a concentration of glycine to be 1.5 to 2.5M, and recovering a precipitate (3rd glycine precipitation); and (d) dissolving the precipitate of step (c) in a dissolution buffer to obtain a solution, and subjecting the solution to nanofiltration using a nanofilter.

Abstract: A method for preparing a highly concentrated fibrinogen solution includes adding amino acid or amino acid derivatives, and/or salts to a lowly concentrated fibrinogen solution, followed by a ultra-filtration concentration. Factor XIII can be added either before or after the ultra-filtration to give a fibrin sealant component 1 containing the highly concentrated fibrinogen solution. The fibrin sealant component 1 could be preserved for a long time at room temperature and be used without a reconstitution. Fibrin sealant component 2 is a solution containing thrombin and calcium. A fibrin sealant product may be provided in a vial type in which the fibrin sealant components 1 and 2 are each filled in separate vials or in a re-filled syringe type wherein the fibrin sealant components 1 and 2 are each filled in separate syringes connected with each other to be instantly used.

Abstract: A fuel reformer using radiation comprises: a reforming reactor including a reforming catalyst for shifting fuel into a desired substance; a heater for supplying heat to the reforming catalyst; and a transparent inner wall positioned between the reforming reactor and the heater. With the present invention, the heat energy of the heater is transferred to the reforming catalyst in a radiation form so that the thermal efficiency of the fuel reformer can be improved.
