[Second set method for determining the immunogenicity of heart valves].

The "second set" method was used on inbred rats to study immunogenicity of the heart valves treated with a proteolytic enzyme and glutaric aldehyde and to compare it with immunogenicity of the valves treated with glutaric aldehyde alone according to Hancock's method. The valves treated by the enzyme and 0.2-0.5% glutaric aldehyde did not lead to the body sensitization in contrast to the valves exposed to 0.5% glutaric aldehyde alone. During transplantation of the latter ones, there were signs of the immunologic response on the part of the recipients and calcification of valvular tissue 70 days after subcutaneous implantation. It is assumed that pretreatment with the enzyme makes it possible to appreciably reduce immunogenicity of the heart valves.

[Tetracycline hydrochloride complex formation with collagen].

The quantitative indices and regularities of tetracycline hydrochloride binding with colelagen in the process of complex formation were studied in vitro. It was found that tetracycline-interacted with collagen. The amount of the antibiotic bound depended on its initial concentration in the mixture and the aggregate state of the protein: the amount of tetracycline hydrochloride absorbed by dissloved collagen was 10 times higher than that absorbed by polymerized collagen. The antibiotic bound with collagen did not lose its specific antibacterial activity.
