Download or read book Healthcare Sterilisation written by Wayne J Rogers and published by Smithers Rapra. This book was released on 2014-06-09 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collection of topics in the second volume of this book challenges the reader to think beyond standard methods and question why certain current procedures remain static while technological advances abound in other aspects of sterilisation technology. By small means, better practices may come to pass to help answer some of the residual healthcare sterilisation and nosocomial infection queries: What are some of the current challenges in healthcare sterilisation, and how can they be handled? What are some of the acceptable current non-traditional sterilisation methods, challenging alternatives, and novel modalities? What are some of the packaging, validation and statistical considerations of sterilisation practices? How does design-of-product and packaging interrelate with sterilisation processing? Are the current sterility media and practices optimal for recovery of more modified and more resistant viable organism entities and product? Are there increased sterility and product quality needs with new types of implantables and technological advances within the three dimensional combinations of diagnostics, drug release and challenging medical devices?

Download or read book Radiation in Tissue Banking written by Aziz Nather and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important book discusses the need for gamma irradiation in the processing of tissue allografts. With particular emphasis on tissue banking in the Asia-Pacific region, it covers a wide range of issues in tissue banking, including the basic science of radiation, quality control of the irradiation process, and clinical applications of irradiated bone grafts and amnions. A compulsory textbook for the well-regarded Singapore-based IAEA/NUS Diploma Course in Tissue Banking, it is also a useful guide for tissue bankers in establishing quality systems in their banks. Whether they be tissue banking students, tissue graft producers, radiation scientists, or transplantation surgeons, readers of this book will discover the latest developments in this exciting interdisciplinary field.

Download or read book Bone Grafts And Bone Substitutes Basic Science And Clinical Applications written by Abdul Aziz Nather and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2005-09-01 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the latest updates on the major challenges of bridging large bone defects, where options range from autografts, “tissue engineered bone”, biomaterials (hydroxyapatite, polycaprolactone and third generation biomaterials) to prostheses. Emphasis has been made on bone tissue engineering, the current state-of-the-art in this field, problems encountered with cell culture technology, scaffolds and bone growth factors (including genomics) and the use of gene therapy for the application of bone growth factors. Attention has also been given to the use of bone autografts. It also covers the use of biomaterials and prostheses as other options for reconstruction. Clinical applications, in addition to the basic science, are also included throughout the discussions.

Download or read book Advances in Tissue Banking written by Glyn O. Phillips and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2000 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series has now established itself as the leading publication on the multi-disciplinary subject of tissue banking. The high quality of the contributors and the broad coverage of the subject have continued in Volume 4. The material given in this volume is not presented anywhere else as systematically or as authoritatively. The essential feature in establishing confidence in the quality and safety of allografts is the manufacturing quality system utilised. This volume describes the most recent approach to good manufacturing control. Throughout the world, the old cottage approach to tissue banking is being abandoned, mainly due to the insistence by regulatory authorities that he procedures should be standardised and rigorous infection control applied. The experience in a number of counties is described in this volume, giving the reader quick access to developments in Argentina, Finland, Indonesia, Scotland and France. These represent a geographical and cultural spread of the developments. A balance needs to be struck between the use of allografts and of bone substitutes, depending on the clinical condition and the availability of grafts in a particular situation. The subject areas -- such as mandibular reconstruction, spinal surgery, surgery and reconstruction of bone tumours and acetabular revision -- covered in this volume demonstrate the universality of this technique. The use of allografts of the repair of knee ligaments has been and remains a controversial subject. The contributions on this subject will surely be and important and positive addition to this debate.
