Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomaterials technology, specifically relating to a human soft tissue filling material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Among soft tissue fillers, the main types are silicone and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE), as well as hyaluronic acid and fat. Hyaluronic acid is quite common in the cosmetic industry, primarily containing sodium hyaluronate. It is generally used as a filler and has good gelling properties. However, sodium hyaluronate gel not only has poor antibacterial properties but also degrades rapidly, is prone to displacement, and cannot maintain its filling effect well, requiring repeated injections. This increases the cost of medical procedures for patients and wastes a significant amount of time for both medical staff and patients. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a human soft tissue filling material with slow degradation rate, good antibacterial and biocompatibility, and low displacement, as well as its preparation method.

[0004] This invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] In a first aspect, a human soft tissue filling material is provided, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 45-75 parts of cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel, 30-50 parts of bioglass, 5-15 parts of hydroxyapatite, 0.5-5 parts of glycerin, 0.1-0.25 parts of lidocaine hydrochloride, and 0.1-0.7 parts of dexamethasone.

[0006] Furthermore, the bioglass comprises the following components in parts by weight: 50-55 parts silicon dioxide, 12-15 parts sodium bicarbonate, 18-22 parts calcium oxide, 6-8 parts calcium phosphate, 9.5-12 parts magnesium carbonate, and 14.8-20.5 parts potassium carbonate.

[0007] In a second aspect, a method for preparing the human soft tissue filling material described in the first aspect is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0008] pH was adjusted by adding an acid-base regulator to the zinc hyaluronic acid solution, and then a cross-linking agent was added. The solution was heated and kept at a certain temperature, and then cooled to room temperature to obtain crude cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel. The crude cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel was purified, granulated, packaged, and sterilized to obtain cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel.

[0009] Silica, sodium bicarbonate, calcium oxide, calcium phosphate, magnesium carbonate and potassium carbonate are mixed evenly in a weight ratio, heated and kept at a temperature in stages, then poured into deionized water for quenching, dried and ball-milled in stages, and sieved to separate particles of different particle sizes. The particles of each size are mixed in proportion to obtain bioglass.

[0010] Cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel, bioglass, hydroxyapatite, glycerin, lidocaine hydrochloride, and dexamethasone were mixed in proportions by weight to obtain a human soft tissue filling material.

[0011] Furthermore, the specific preparation method of the cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel includes: mixing zinc hyaluronic acid powder with physiological saline to obtain a zinc hyaluronic acid solution; adding an acid-base regulator to the zinc hyaluronic acid solution to adjust the pH value of the solution to 7.8-10.2, then adding a cross-linking agent, stirring and heating to 70-85℃, keeping it at that temperature for 12-20h, and then cooling to room temperature to obtain crude cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel; purifying the crude cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel with phosphate buffer for 18-72h, and finally granulating, dispensing, and moist heat sterilizing to obtain the final product.

[0012] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the zinc hyaluronic acid powder to physiological saline is 1:(22-25).

[0013] Furthermore, the acid-base regulator includes one or more of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium citrate, triethanolamine, hydrochloric acid, citric acid, acetic acid, and carbonic acid.

[0014] Furthermore, the crosslinking agent includes one of butylene glycol glycidyl ether, divinyl sulfone, oxalic acid dihydrazide, carbodiimide, and glycidyl methacrylate.

[0015] Furthermore, the phosphate buffer solution includes ammonium dihydrogen phosphate or diammonium hydrogen phosphate.

[0016] Furthermore, the specific method for staged heating and heat preservation includes: heating to 550℃ and holding for 30 minutes, continuing to heat to 850℃ and holding for 45 minutes, then heating to 1200℃ and holding for 24 minutes, and finally heating to 1450-1520℃ and holding for 60 minutes.

[0017] Furthermore, after the grading ball milling, particles with particle sizes of 1-20μm, 20-120μm, 120-350μm and 350-550μm are screened out, and the four are mixed in a mass ratio of (25-40):(20-30):(15-35):(5-30).

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0019] (1) The human soft tissue filling material provided by the present invention includes cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel, which has the characteristics of slow degradation and does not require repeated injections. The zinc ions contained therein have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects and are crucial for the normal development of various cells and the natural and acquired immune functions, such as neutrophils, natural killer cells, macrophages, T cells, etc.

[0020] (2) The human soft tissue filling material provided by the present invention includes bioglass and hydroxyapatite, which can be used as a filling material for human bone defects. It is also currently an active material that can be used for both hard tissue repair and soft tissue repair. Bioglass is an inorganic silicate material containing potassium and magnesium, which has excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility and antibacterial properties. When it is mixed with cross-linked zinc hyaluronic acid gel and implanted into human soft tissue, the shaping time of the soft tissue after filling can be greatly extended. At the same time, because bioglass and hydroxyapatite are powder particles, they are more likely to provide support and are less prone to displacement.

[0021] (3) The preparation method of human soft tissue filling material provided by the present invention is simple, easy to operate, low in cost, and conducive to promotion and use. Detailed Implementation
