  • Patent number: 7135025
    Abstract: A surgical implant made of a polymer, copolymer, polymer mixture or polymer composite that dissolves in the organ system. The manufacturing material is dyed with the coloring agent D&C Violet No. 2 or D&C Green No. 6. Preferably, the amount of the coloring agent is at most approximately 0.03 percent by weight and the implant is sterilized by radiation.

  • Patent number: 7041107
    Abstract: An instrument for shaping a mouth part of a drilled tunnel provided in a bone. The instrument includes a shaft having a longitudinal axis and a first and a second end. The first end of the shaft is provided with a projection, which includes a blade for shaping the mouth part of the drilled tunnel when the instrument is turned around the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The instrument is asymmetric at an intersecting surface perpendicular to the longitudinal axis and intersecting with the blade, the instrument thus shaping the surfaces surrounding the first end only substantially within an area corresponding with a turning angle of such a turning movement.

  • Patent number: 5795913
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an ophthalmic composition in the form of a topical aqueous solution consisting essentially ofan ophthalmologically active agent containing basic groups,an ion sensitive, hydrophilic polymer containing acidic groups in an amount of 0.004 to 1.5% by weight,at least one salt selected from the group of inorganic salts and buffers in a total amount of from 0.01 to 2.0% by weight,and optionally a wetting agent and a preservative, the ratio between salt and polymer being such that the solution exhibits a viscosity of less than 1000 mpas, and the pH of the solution is 4.0 to 8.0. The composition contains a sufficient amount of polymer to provide for a controlled absorption of the drug into the eye, its viscosity having been reduced to provide for better handling characteristics.
