Abstract:
Objective:To prepare and evaluate the effectiveness of chitosan-carboxymethylcellulose membrane in preventing postoperative intestinal adhesion.Methods: Chitosan-carboxymethylcellulose membrane was prepared with 11 ratio of chitosan and carboxymethylcellulose.Glutaraldehyde and ammonium aluminium sulfate were used for cross-linkage,glycerin for enhancing plasticity;and then the product was dried.The membrane was observed with scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and its tensile strength and breaking elongation were measured.Forty-eight SD rats with ileum injury were randomly divided into A,B and C groups(n=16).During operation,the injury in group A was treated with chitosan-carboxymethylcellulose membrane,in group B with chitosan membrane,and in group C without treatment(control group).The adhesion was observed on the 14~(th) postoperative day.Results: The tensile strength of chitosan-carboxymethylcellulose membrane was 20 MPa and the breaking elongation was 65%.SEM showed that the morphology of the membrane had crossed fibroid structures and irregular pores. The severity of adhesion in group A and B was significantly lower than that in group C(P
