We promote research and development in collaboration with several companies and a universities, playing a role as project planner and manager. For example,
custom-made bone implant project involves the Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, Division of Tissue Engineering, the University of Tokyo Hospital, and Veterinary Medical Center, School of Veterinary Medicine, The University of Tokyo as well as private companies with cutting-edge basic technologies in respective fields such as raw-material supply or computer image processing. |
■ Project
Overview
Hemostatic and adhesion-preventive surgical device
Adhesion-preventive technology. Gas-fluidized adhesion-preventive powder and water solution are mixed and sprayed over incised or sutured regions to form adhesion-preventive gel film.
Trehalose adhesion-preventive solution
Trehalose solution for reduction and prevention of postoperative inflammations and tissue adhesions utilizing mambrane protective effect of trehalose.
Trehalose solution for oral mucosa protection
Trehalose solution for tissue surface protection at cellular level against xerostomia damages utilizing membrane protective effects of trehalose.
Trehalose vasospasm-preventive device
Trehalose solution for prevention of cerebral vasospasm utilizing membrane protective effects of
trehalose.
Custom-made artificial bone implant
Novel fabrication technique of artificial bones utilizing 3 dimensional lamination method by ink-jet printing.
Tetrapod-shaped bone filler
Tetrapod-shaped bone fillers which construct connecting macro-pore network when integrated.
