Abstract: A biodegradable composition containing an antibiotic or a physiologically active substance for use in surgical treatment of infection. A highly safe and biocompatible composition showing appropriately sustained release of an antibiotic or physiologically active substance which produces excellent antibiotic and bone regenerating effects. A composition having excellent effects in treatment of bone infection occurring after operations for total arthroplasty and/or bone fracture. (1) A medical composition for treatment of bone infection comprising an antibiotic and a polysaccharide.

Abstract: A separate type medical material containing a hyaluronic acid ester derivative, which satisfies the storage stability of a hyaluronic acid ester derivative and avoidance of irritation and pain at the time of injecting a therapeutic agent for joints, is provided. A separate type medical material comprising liquid (A) which is an aqueous solution containing a hyaluronic acid ester derivative and buffered to a pH of from 4.5 to 6.5, and liquid (B) which is an aqueous solution having such a buffering power that when it is mixed with the liquid (A), the mixed liquid has a pH within a range of from 6.8 to 7.8, kept separately from each other.

Abstract: It is to provide a material to inhibit spine/spinal cord adhesion in the form of a sponge, a film or a suspension to be used for the purpose of assisting/accelerating the tissue healing. An adhesion inhibiting material for a spine/spinal cord surgery in the form of a sponge, a film or a suspension to be used for reducing the degree of adhesion or for inhibiting adhesion caused by a spine/spinal cord surgery, which contains a crosslinked acid polysaccharide.

Abstract: Production of a hyaluronic acid gel, which comprises keeping hyaluronic acid in water at a hyaluronic acid concentration of at least 5 wt % in the presence of an acid component in an amount at least equimolar with the carboxyl groups in the hyaluronic acid.

Abstract: A gel made of hyaluronic acid alone which is hardly soluble in a neutral aqueous solution and has fluidity enough to be easily ejectable from an injector.
