Abstract:
Objective To study the in vitro heating ability of Ni-Cu thermoseeds and their effect on the rabbit liver cells and tissues. Methods The temperature of rabbit liver tissues were monitored under an alternating magnetic field.MTT assay was used to evaluate the in vitro cytotoxicity of the extra-liquid of the Ni-Cu thermoseeds;Hemolytic test was carried out to estimate its blood toxicity;and muscular implantation test was employed to determine the levels of its tissue toxicity.Results The thermoseeds used in this experiment showed a high heating ability in alternating magnetic field in vitro.MTT assay showed that the toxicity of the material on mouse fibroblast(L-929) cell lines was 1 degree,which means non-cytotoxic.Hemolytic test revealed a hemolysis rate(HR) of 3.25%(less than 5%),showing that the thermoseeds had no hemolytic reaction.Muscular implantation test showed different levels of inflammatory reaction in the muscle tissues.Conclusion Thermoseeds induced heating in alternating magnetic field can achieve an appropriate temperature,and the gilded thermoseeds have a high biocompatibility with 1 degree cytotoxicity without leading to hemolytic reaction.
