title: Resorbed polymeric sponge used as a carrier the therapeutic substance. Part 1. Gelatine sponge.
abstract: The obtaining of porous, elastic gel matrix, as a carrier of therapeutic substance, with long decomposition time was the aim of the research. The gelatin extracted from pig skin (Fisher Chemicals Schweiz) and 86% glycerol (Chempur) was used in experiments. The studies showed that such biopolymer as gelatine enable to prepare the matrix which can remain in an organism for a time long enough and a porous structure of the sponge allows to increase absorbing capacity of exudate.
