Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomedical materials technology, specifically relating to a decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution. Background Technology
[0002] Acellular matrix dressings, as a type of biological dressing, play an important role in the treatment of burns, trauma, and other wounds. They provide protection for the wound, reduce the risk of infection, and promote wound healing. However, acellular matrix dressings are susceptible to microbial contamination and moisture loss during storage, leading to a decline in their bioactivity and efficacy. Currently, while commercially available preservative solutions for acellular matrix dressings offer some preservation effects, some use highly irritating preservatives that may damage the cellular structure and bioactivity of the dressings. Furthermore, some preservative solutions lack sufficient moisturizing properties, failing to maintain the moisture content of the dressings for extended periods, thus affecting their effectiveness. Therefore, developing a preservative solution for acellular matrix dressings with excellent antiseptic, moisturizing, and safety properties is of significant practical importance. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Therefore, based on the above background, the present invention provides a decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution, which overcomes the shortcomings of existing preservation solutions in that they cannot simultaneously achieve dressing flexibility, antibacterial properties and biocompatibility.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, in a first aspect, a decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution is provided, comprising glycerol, 1,2-hexanediol, dipropylene glycol, p-hydroxyacetophenone, and water.
[0005] In some embodiments of the first aspect, the weight percentages of the components are: glycerol 1.5-2.5%; 1,2-hexanediol 0.8-1.5%; dipropylene glycol 0.4-1.0%; p-hydroxyacetophenone 0.3-0.6%; and the balance is water. Specifically, the content of glycerol may be 1.5%, 2.0%, or 2.5%; the content of 1,2-hexanediol may be 0.8%, 1.0%, 1.2%, or 1.5%; the content of dipropylene glycol may be 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%, or 1.0%; and the content of p-hydroxyacetophenone may be 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, or 0.6%.
[0006] In some embodiments of the first aspect, the weight percentages of the components are: glycerol 2%; 1,2-hexanediol 1%; dipropylene glycol 0.6%; p-hydroxyacetophenone 0.4%; and the balance being water.
[0007] In some embodiments of the first aspect, the weight ratio of 1,2-hexanediol to p-hydroxyacetophenone is (2:1) to (3:1); for example.
[0008] In some embodiments of the first aspect, the weight ratio of glycerol to dipropylene glycol is (3:1) to (5:1); for example.
[0009] In some embodiments of the first aspect, the weight ratio of 1,2-hexanediol to p-hydroxyacetophenone is 2.5:1.
[0010] In some embodiments of the first aspect, the weight ratio of glycerol to dipropylene glycol is 3.3:1.
[0011] Secondly, a method for preparing a decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution is provided, comprising the following steps: S1: Weigh out glycerin, 1,2-hexanediol, dipropylene glycol, p-hydroxyacetophenone and water according to the weight percentage; S2: Add glycerol, 1,2-hexanediol, dipropylene glycol and p-hydroxyacetophenone to water in sequence and stir until completely dissolved to obtain the decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution.
[0012] In some embodiments of the second aspect, in S1, 1.5-2.5% glycerol, 0.8-1.5% 1,2-hexanediol, 0.4-1.0% dipropylene glycol, 0.3-0.6% p-hydroxyacetophenone, and the balance being water are weighed by weight.
[0013] Thirdly, an application of a decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution in the preparation of wound repair medical devices is provided.
[0014] In some embodiments of the third aspect, the medical device is a burn dressing, an ulcer repair membrane, or a tissue-engineered scaffold.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, in one embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the following beneficial effects is achieved by organically combining glycerol, 1,2-hexanediol, dipropylene glycol and p-hydroxyacetophenone: 1. Excellent preservative properties: p-Hydroxyacetophenone is a safe and effective preservative that inhibits the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, ensuring that the decellularized matrix dressing is not contaminated by microorganisms during preservation. Simultaneously, 1,2-hexanediol also has a certain antibacterial effect, working synergistically with p-hydroxyacetophenone to enhance the preservative effect of the preservation solution.
[0016] 5) Excellent moisturizing properties: Glycerin and dipropylene glycol are both good moisturizers that can absorb moisture from the air, prevent moisture loss from the fish skin dressing, maintain the moisture state of the decellularized matrix dressing for a long time, and preserve its biological activity.
[0017] 6) High safety: All components used in this invention are commonly used in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical fields. They have low toxicity and low irritation and will not damage the cell structure and biological activity of the decellularized matrix dressing. They are suitable for the preservation of medical decellularized matrix dressings.
[0018] 7) Good stability: The components have good compatibility, and the prepared preservation solution has high stability. No layering or precipitation will occur during storage and use.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to its embodiments; it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0024] [Preservation solution and preparation of decellularized matrix dressing according to specific embodiments of the present invention] Weigh the corresponding substances according to the weight percentages recorded in Table 1; add the above components to purified water to prepare a solution, stir until completely dissolved; filter sterilize using a 0.22 μm filter membrane, dispense and store in the dark to obtain Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7. The composition of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 is shown in Table 1.

[0026] [Antibacterial performance related experiments] Experiment Example 1: Antibacterial Rate Experiment under Single Bacterial Solution Conditions To demonstrate that the dressing preservation solution of this application can give the preserved dressing a certain degree of antibacterial properties and prevent the dressing from spoiling, this experiment was conducted.
[0027] Tested bacterial strains: Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Escherichia coli (ATCC 8739), and Candida albicans (ATCC 10231).
[0028] Test method: Refer to ISO 20776 "Test of antimicrobial efficacy", the specific steps are as follows: 1) Preparation of bacterial suspension: The test bacterial strains were cultured at 37℃ for 24 hours and adjusted to a McFarland turbidity of 0.5 (approximately 1.5 × 10⁻⁶). 8 (CFU / mL).
[0029] 2) Mixed samples: Take the preservation solution and bacterial suspension of each example or comparative example and mix them at a volume ratio of 1:9, and place them in a sterile test tube.
[0030] 3) Incubation treatment: Incubate the bacterial suspension from step 1) and the mixed sample obtained from step 2) in a 37°C incubator for 24 hours.
[0031] 4) Plate count: Take 100 μL of the mixture, spread it evenly on TSA medium, incubate at 37°C for 24 hours, and then calculate the colony forming units (CFU).
[0032] 5) Antibacterial rate calculation: The antibacterial rate is calculated according to the formula = [(control group CFU - experimental group CFU) / control group CFU] × 100%, where the bacterial suspension in step 1) is the control group and the mixed sample obtained in step 2) is the experimental group.
[0033] The test results are shown in Tables 2-11: Table 2. Antibacterial rate of different bacterial species in Example 1 (in %)
[0034] Table 3. Antibacterial rate of different bacterial species in Example 2 (in %)

[0042] Table 11. Antibacterial rates of different bacterial species in Comparative Example 7 (in %)
[0043] Results Summary: The preservation solutions of Examples 1-3 all exhibited inhibition rates exceeding 95% against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans, indicating significant antibacterial effects. Among them, the inhibition rate against Staphylococcus aureus was the highest (average 99.1%), meeting the requirements of ISO 20776 for highly effective antibacterial agents. The antibacterial rates of Comparative Examples 1-4 were extremely low, far lower than those of Examples 1-3, indicating that low-concentration glycerol alone has no effective antibacterial effect. In Comparative Examples 9-11, some component values were not within the range of "glycerol 1.5%-2.5%, 1,2-hexanediol 0.8%-1.5%, dipropylene glycol 0.4%-1.0%, p-hydroxyacetophenone 0.3%-0.6%". Although their performance was better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4 with single components, it was not as good as that of Examples 1-3, proving that "glycerol 1.5%-2.5%, 1,2-hexanediol 0.8%-1.5%, dipropylene glycol 0.4%-1.0%, p-hydroxyacetophenone 0.3%-0.6%" is the optimal range. In the examples, the composite system of glycerol + 1,2-hexanediol + dipropylene glycol + p-hydroxyacetophenone achieved synergistic antibacterial effects among the components, which is the core of achieving highly efficient antibacterial activity.
[0044] [Safety-related experiments] In the above experiments, the antibacterial properties of Examples 1-3 have been demonstrated through comparison with the comparative examples. Considering that the comparative examples do not possess antibacterial properties comparable to Examples 1-3 and cannot solve the technical problem of this invention, the safety of Examples 1-3 was verified in the following safety-related experiments. The "compound formulation" mentioned below refers to a formulation of "glycerol 1.5%-2.5%, 1,2-hexanediol 0.8%-1.5%, dipropylene glycol 0.4%-1.0%, and p-hydroxyacetophenone 0.3%-0.6%".
[0045] Experiment Example 2: Microbial Safety Testing and Results 1) Purpose of detection To verify the microbial safety of the decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution of this invention (i.e., the dressing preservation solution itself is sterile), the Youkang Biotechnology Broad-Spectrum Microbial Comprehensive Detection Kit (model: UK-Micro-6, specification: 48 tests / kit) was used. This kit enables one-stop detection of total bacterial count, total fungal and yeast count, and specific pathogenic microorganisms (Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Clostridium tetani), simplifying the operation process and standardizing testing standards. It provides efficient and accurate detection data for product safety evaluation and industrial production quality control. This kit has passed ISO 13485 quality management system certification and is widely used in medical devices, biological agents, and other fields. It is suitable for detecting preservation solutions containing preservatives, effectively eliminating matrix interference, and the stability and specificity of the test results meet industry standards.
[0046] 2) Testing materials a) Samples to be tested: The prepared decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution (Examples 1-3) was sampled in 10 mL portions. All sampling was performed in a sterile laminar flow hood to avoid external microbial contamination. b) Test kit: Youkang Bio's Broad-Spectrum Microbial Comprehensive Detection Kit (Model: UK-Micro-6, Batch No.: 20240512) includes a complete set of detection components; c) Preprocessing components: Specialized matrix balancing solution (pH 7.2±0.2, which can neutralize the antibacterial components in the preservation solution and eliminate detection interference), and 0.45μm pore size sample purification column (used to filter particulate impurities in the sample and avoid clogging the reaction pores). d) Multi-channel detection board: The 96-well polystyrene well contains 6 independent reaction wells, corresponding to the detection channels for total bacterial count, fungi and yeast, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Clostridium tetani, respectively. Each channel is pre-coated with a specific reaction substrate. e) Reagents: TTC chromogenic reagent (for total bacterial count detection; live bacteria can be reduced to red formazan), rosin stain (for fungal and yeast detection; colonies turn red), Staphylococcus aureus antibody latex reagent (generates agglutination reaction upon binding with target bacteria), Pseudomonas aeruginosa oxidase substrate (turns blue-green upon contact with Pseudomonas aeruginosa oxidase), Clostridium tetani fluorescent probe (reacts with target bacterial enzymes under anaerobic conditions to produce fluorescence). f) Quality control products: Positive control mixed bacterial suspension (containing Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Candida albicans ATCC 10231, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Clostridium tetani ATCC 19406, concentration 10) 3 CFU / mL), negative control solution (sterile phosphate buffer, used to exclude interference from the reagents themselves); g) Auxiliary materials: Anaerobic culture bags (containing methylene blue indicator to quickly create an anaerobic environment and ensure normal growth of Clostridium tetani), stop solution (1 mol / L HCl, used to terminate the enzymatic reaction and fix the detection signal), and colony counting grid plates (used for quantitative counting of bacterial and fungal colonies).
[0047] h) Auxiliary instruments: A Level 2 biosafety cabinet (model: BSC-1300IIA2, ensuring aseptic operation), a Youkang Bio-compatible microbial detection incubator (model: UK-360, with anaerobic culture module, temperature control accuracy ±0.5℃), pipettes (0.1-10mL, accuracy ±0.5%, for precise pipetting), a Youkang Bio fluorescence reader (model: UK-FL800, compatible with reagent kit fluorescence detection channel, excitation wavelength 490nm, emission wavelength 520nm), and sterile centrifuge tubes (15mL, polypropylene, centrifugally resistant).
[0048] 3) Detection methods a) Sample pretreatment Inside a biosafety level 2 cabinet, take 5 mL of the preservation solution sample from each example or comparative example, add 5 mL of the matrix equilibration solution provided with the kit, and vortex at 1500 rpm for 1 min to mix thoroughly, thus preparing a 1:2 dilution. Slowly transfer the dilution to a sample purification column, centrifuge at 4000 rpm for 3 min, and collect the supernatant after centrifugation for later use. This step can remove 99% of the antibacterial components and particulate impurities in the preservation solution, avoiding interference with subsequent detection reactions.
[0049] b) Sample addition and incubation i. Take out the multichannel detection plate from the kit and add 0.2 mL of the supernatant to each well corresponding to the total bacterial count, fungi and yeast, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Clostridium tetani reaction. Perform three parallel replicates for each sample. At the same time, set up a quality control group: add 0.2 mL of positive control mixed bacterial solution to the positive control well and add 0.2 mL of negative control solution to the negative control well. Perform three parallel replicates for each group.
[0050] ii. Perform group culture according to the conditions specified in the kit: iii. Total bacterial count reaction wells: Place the test plate in a constant temperature incubator at 36℃±1℃ and incubate aerobically for 6 hours. Observe every 2 hours during this period to avoid over-incubation and overlapping of colonies. iv. Fungal and yeast reaction wells: Transfer to a constant temperature incubator at 25℃±1℃ and incubate aerobically for 20 hours. This temperature can promote the growth of fungi and yeasts while inhibiting the reproduction of some miscellaneous bacteria. v. Staphylococcus aureus reaction wells: First, incubate in a constant temperature incubator at 36℃±1℃ for 4 hours. After removing the incubator, add 0.05mL of Staphylococcus aureus antibody latex reagent to each well, gently shake to mix, and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes to wait for the agglutination reaction to occur. vi. Pseudomonas aeruginosa reaction wells: Place in a constant temperature incubator at 36℃±1℃ and culture aerobically for 8 hours to ensure that Pseudomonas aeruginosa fully multiplies and produces sufficient oxidase. vii. Tetanus bacteria reaction wells: Add 0.02 mL of tetanus fluorescent probe to each well, mix gently, place the corresponding area of the detection plate into an anaerobic culture bag, seal the bag opening (the oxygen concentration inside the bag will drop to < 0.1% within 30 min, and the methylene blue indicator will change from blue to colorless, indicating that the anaerobic environment has been successfully constructed), and then incubate in a constant temperature incubator at 37℃±1℃ for 10 h.
[0051] c) Result Interpretation i. Interpretation of total bacterial count: Remove the cultured bacterial count reaction wells and cover them with the colony counting grid plate provided with the kit. Visually count the red colonies (formazan formed by the reduction of TTC by live bacteria is red). Calculate the final result according to "Total bacterial count (CFU / mL) = Colony count × 2" (since the sample has been diluted 1:2). If no red colonies are observed, the colony count is considered to be < 1 CFU / well, corresponding to a total bacterial count < 2 CFU / mL.
[0052] ii. Interpretation of fungi and yeast: Observe the reaction wells for fungi and yeast, count the red colonies (fungal colonies are fluffy, yeast colonies are round), and calculate the total number according to the dilution factor. If there are no red colonies, the total number is judged to be < 2 CFU / mL.
[0053] iii. Interpretation of Staphylococcus aureus: Visually observe whether white agglomerated particles appear in the reaction wells. If obvious agglomerated particles are present, the result is considered positive (detected); if the solution remains homogeneous and transparent without agglomeration, the result is considered negative (not detected).
[0054] iv. Interpretation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa: Observe the color change of the solution in the reaction well. If it changes from colorless to blue-green, it is considered positive (detected); if the solution remains colorless, it is considered negative (not detected).
[0055] v. Tetanus bacteria interpretation: Place the test plate into the Youkang Bio UK-FL800 fluorescence reader, set the excitation wavelength to 490nm and the emission wavelength to 520nm, and detect the fluorescence value of each reaction well; using the fluorescence value of the negative control well as a benchmark, if the fluorescence value of the sample well is ≥3 times the fluorescence value of the negative control, it is judged as positive (detected); if the fluorescence value is <3 times the fluorescence value of the negative control, it is judged as negative (not detected).
[0056] 4) Test results: as shown in Tables 12 and 13.
[0057] Table 12
[0058] Table 13 Comparison with Example 1
[0059] 5) Summary of Results a) Using the Youkang Biotechnology Broad-Spectrum Microbial Comprehensive Detection Kit (UK-Micro-6), the total bacterial count and total fungal and yeast count of the preservation solution of the decellularized matrix dressing of this invention were ≤2 CFU / mL, both far below the requirement of "total bacterial count ≤10" in GB / T19973.1-2015 "Microbiological Methods for Sterilization of Medical Devices Part 1: Estimation of Total Microbial Count on the Product". 3 CFU / mL, total fungal count ≤10 2 The requirement of "CFU / mL" indicates that the microbial count meets safety standards.
[0060] b) No specific pathogenic microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, or Clostridium tetani were detected in Examples 1-3 and all comparative examples. Furthermore, the quality control system of the kit was validated effectively without any detection interference, indicating that the preservation solutions of Examples 1-3 have no risk of pathogenic microbial contamination and have good microbial safety.
[0061] In summary, the microbial safety of the decellularized matrix dressing preservation solution of this invention meets the requirements for clinical application of medical devices.

Figure 9 Based on the data, the conclusions are as follows: No hemolysis occurred in any of the test groups, and the hemolysis rate was far below the threshold for no hemolysis (≤5%), proving that the preservation solution formulation involved in the embodiments of the present invention has good biocompatibility in blood contact scenarios and has no risk of hemolysis.
[0091] Experiment Example 6: Safety Testing – Cytotoxicity Detection 1. Test methods: The tests were conducted in accordance with OECD Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals 423 / 425 and GB / T 16886.5-2017 Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 5: In vitro cytotoxicity tests.
[0092] 2. Testing materials: a) Preservation solution to be tested: The decellularized matrix preservation solution prepared in the examples / comparative examples was sterilized by a 0.22 μm filter membrane before use; b) Extraction medium: sterile Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM, containing 10% (v / v) fetal bovine serum). c) Cell line: Logarithmic growth phase L929 mouse fibroblasts; d) Detection reagents: MTT solution (5 mg / mL, prepared with sterile PBS and sterilized with a 0.22 μm filter membrane), DMSO.
[0093] 3. Testing Steps a) Preparation of preservation solution dilution: The sterilized preservation solution was mixed with DMEM medium at a volume ratio to prepare a concentration gradient of 100% (pure preservation solution), 50%, 25%, and 10% (stored at 4°C in the dark and used within 24 hours); a blank control group (pure DMEM medium) and a negative control group (sterile physiological saline + DMEM) were also set up.
[0094] b) Cell seeding and treatment After cell digestion, a single-cell suspension was prepared and the concentration was adjusted to 5 × 10⁻⁶. 4 cells / mL (Note: Originally 2×10) 4 The concentration is too low; OECD typically uses 5×10⁻⁶. 4 To ensure cell adhesion density, add 100 μL of suspension to each well of a 96-well plate and incubate at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 24 h until cell adhesion is ≥80%. Discard the original culture medium, add 100 μL of the corresponding concentration of preservation solution to each well of each experimental group, and add an equal volume of blank / negative culture medium to the control group. Incubate at 37℃ and 5% CO2 for 48 h.
[0095] c) Toxicity testing Discard the liquid in the wells, add 100 μL of MTT solution to each well, and incubate at 37°C for 4 h. Discard the MTT solution, add 150 μL of DMSO to each well, and shake for 10 min to fully dissolve the crystals; The OD value of each well was measured at 570 nm using an ELISA reader, and the cell viability was calculated.
