Periodontitis is disease of damaged gum tissue that is not removed the plaque onto teeth. In case that the symptoms of disease get pain worse, it will have to extract tooth because of tumefy or bleeding at gums so treatment of drug was required to periodontitis. In this study, the hydrogel was prepared by including superior viscous, excellent elastic, and biocompatibility of Poly(vinyl alcohol, PVA) and antimicrobial drug of Metronidazole (MD). The 15 wt% PVA was dissolved in deionized water and then prepared PVA solution was irradiated using gamma-ray at 25 kGy ($10kGy\;hr^{-1}$). In addition, PVA hydrogel was immersed in each 0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 wt% MD solution using stirrer for 24 hr. The result of the gelation, 0.5 wt% MD loaded PVA hydrogel(76%) was lower than PVA hydrogel (88.2%). The swelling ration of 0.5 wt% MD loaded PVA hydrogel (294.8%) was higher than PVA hydrogel (105.2%). The compressive strength and thermal properties of MD loaded PVA hydrogel was gradually lower. The drug release test of 0.5 wt% MD loaded PVA hydrogel (61%) was higher than 0.1 wt% MD loaded PVA hydrogel (12%). Therefore, MD loaded PVA hygrogel may be a promising tool for periodontitis medicine by gamma-ray.

고분자량 폴리 (비닐 알코올) (poly(vinyl alcohol), PVA)에 전지빔 (electron beam, EB)을 조사하여 상처치료용 드레싱으로 응용이 기대되는 수화젤을 성공적으로 제조하였다. 다양한 겔화율, 물에서의 팽윤도, 겔강도, 및 신도를 가지는 수화젤을 제조하기 위해 수평균 중합도($P_n$)가 1700과 4000인 두 종류의 PVA를 이용하였으며, PVA 수용액 농도와 EB 조사선량은 5$\sim$20%와 30$\sim$100 kGy의 범위로 각각 조절되었다. 제조된 PVA 수화젤의 겔화율과 겔강도는 PVA의 분자량과 수용액의 농도 및 EB 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였으나, 반면에, PVA 수화젤의 팽윤도와 신도는 감소하였다. PVA 수화젤의 가교밀도에 따른 열적특성과 결정성의 변화는 differential scanning calorimetry와 X-ray diffraction을 이용하여 분석되었다.

The polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel containing 1-methy-2-pymolidinone (MP) and sorbitol was preapred by the freeze and thaw method. The release rate of indomethacin from PVA hydrogel was used as a criterion for deciding the optimum formula of hydrogel using the computer optimization technique. The hydrogel of optimum formula was composed of PVA (10 w/v%), MP (0 w/v%) and sorbitol (40 w/v%) and the release rate of indomethacin was 1.981$\mu$g/ml$\cdot{min}^{1/2}$.

A PVA-soft hydrogel, which is a semi-solid form in container, whereas after applying on the skin, it formed a thin layer within a few minutes. In this study, we prepared a novel type PVA-soft hydrogel containing 6-methyluracil as active drug, and the therapeutic value was characterized. To evaluate the therapeutic value of the PVA-soft hydrogel containing drug, various animal models, thermal burn model, incision & excision wound rat model were used. We also measured the wound size and breaking strength to calculate the wound healing extent after single or multiple administration. The wound size of soft hydrogel treated group decreased rapidly than that of control group after multiple dosing in excision wound model. And, the breaking strength of the soft hydrogel treated group was greater than that of control group in incision wound model.

Hollow type suppositories inserted polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel capsule containing propranolol·HCI (PPH) were prepared using different bases, polyethylene glycol (PEG), Witepsol H-15 (WH-15) and Witepsol W-35 (WW-35) to improve the controlled release of PPH. The release of PPH from the hollow type suppository inserted PVA hydrogel capsule was retarded than that from PEG, WH-15, or WW-35 hollow type suppositories in rat rectal cavity. When the suppositories were administered to rats, the controlled release of PPH was proved by the plasma concentration-time-profiles of PPH. No significant difference (p〈0.05) among the three different hollow type suppositories was observed in terms of AUC and MRT of PPH. WH-15 hollow type suppository inserted 12% of PVA hydrogel capsule caused irritation to rat rectal mucosa. However, the WH-15 hollow type suppository inserted PVA hydrogel capsule caused no severe irritation on rectal mucosa. The application of the hollow type suppositories using PVA in sustained rectal delivery of drugs might be feasible.

고분자 용융 같은 물질의 유변학적인 성질은 전단 흐름에서 복잡한 비 뉴톤 유동 현상을 보인다. 이들 유동성질은 유동단위와 유동부분 사이의 상호작용의 특성에 의하여 결정된다. poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel의 비 뉴톤유동 곡선을 cone-plate 레오메타로 여러 온도와 여러 농도 조건에서 얻었다. PVA hydrogel의 유동 곡선을 비 뉴톤 유동식에 적용시켜 유동 파라메타를 얻었다. 유동현상은 전단 속도가 증가함에 따라 전단박화의 틱소트로피 현상을 나타내었다.

Poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) and hyaluronic acid(HA) hydrogel membranes were prepared with varying HA contents from 10 to 50 wt% of PVA. The water contents of the resulting PVA-HA hydrogel membranes in various pH conditions were measured. And the permeation coefficient of indomethacin was determined using several PVA-HA hydrogel membranes at various pH conditions and also 37$^{\circ}C$.

Objectives: Cefotaxime is an antibiotic used to treat several bacterial infections. Specifically, it is used to treat pelvic inflammatory disease, meningitis, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and sepsis. It is given by injection into either a vein or muscle. Antibacterial polymers prepared by chemical bonding and simple blending of antibacterials into polymers has attracted much interest because of their long-lasting antibacterial activity. This study attempted to review the possibility of hydrogel films as functional antibacterial materials by antimicrobial activity. Methods: In this study, CTX-PAA was synthesized by the chemical reaction of polyacrylic acid with cefotaxime by N,N'-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) method. Synthetic antibacterial hydrogel films were then prepared with PVA and CTX-PAA for functional application. Results: The increase in the cefotaxime content of the hydrogel films showed a similar decrease in tensile strength and elongation. The values of films impregnated with chemically bonded cefotaxime showed no significant difference. Antibacterial susceptibility was determined against Streptococcus pneumoniae and Escherichia coli using a standardized disc test. Conclusion: The synthetic antibacterial hydrogel films exhibited broad susceptibility against Streptococcus pneumoniae and Escherichia coli. Notably, the antibacterial effect of antibacterial hydrogel films against Grampositive (Streptococcus pneumoniae) was superior to that against Gram-negative (Escherichia coli).

To compare the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of PVA/Dextran blended hydrogel obtained by European Pharmacopiea (EP) and Japanese Industrial Standards 1099 (JIS) method, the hydrogels with various PVA/Dextran rates were prepared and their WVTR values were then checked. As dextran in the hydrogel was increased, the WVTR of hydrogel was increased. The WVTR of hydrogels were 660-1500 and $730-1900\;g/m^2$-day in EP and JIS method, respectively. There were no significant differences between the WVTRs of the hydrogels obtained by EP and those obtained by JIS method. Thus, JIS method was recommended as a WVTR method of hydrogel due to relatively simpler and shorter time.

트립탄 계열의 약물을 경구 복용 시에 트립탄은 소화 시스템에 의하여 생물학적 이용도가 감소되며, 혈중 약물 농도가 시간의 경과에 따라 급격히 감소되고, 위장 장애의 가능성 등이 있다는 문제들을 나타낸다. 일반 겔 패치의 부작용을 개선하기 위하여 패치는 하이드로겔 형태로 제조하였다. 하이드로겔 패치의 주가 되는 메트릭스의 고분자는 PVA를 사용하였고, PEG는 PVA의 분자 간/분자 내 수소결합을 유도하기 위해 첨가물로서 사용되었고 알모트립탄 약물이 부가되었다. 또한 PVA 체인간의 미세 상분리를 가속하기 위해 매우 낮은 온도에서 액체질소가 사용되었다. FT-IR 분석에서 PVA, PEG 그리고 알모트립탄의 흡수 밴드를 확인하였다. PEG 함량이 증가함에 따라 결정화도, 수분흡수력과 인장강도들은 증가하였다. 약물방출 실험에서 약물 방출량은 PEG의 함량이 높은 하이드로겔이 약물 방출 시에 팽윤이 더 잘 이루어져 증가하였다. 본 실험에서 10 wt%의 PEG를 첨가하여 제조된 하이드로겔의 약물 방출량이 가장 좋았다. 또한 10 wt%의 PEG가 함유된 하이드로겔은 2시간째까지 전체 약물의 약 60%가 방출됨을 확인하였고, 24시간째까지도 방출이 계속되었다. 따라서 제조된 하이드로겔은 triptan의 1차 투여 이후 24시간 이내에 재발하는 편두통 환자들을 대상으로 한 트립탄의 2차 투여를 위한 경피흡수형 패치로서 적합하다.
