ABSTRACT:
Chemically-modified collagen is prepared by reacting native collagen with a di or tri-carboxylic acid halide, di or tri-sulfonyl halide, di or tri-anhydride, or di or tri-reactive active ester coupling agent. The reaction is done in a controlled manner so that the degree of cross-linking is limited. Any remaining lysine epsilon amino groups present in the coupled collagen product may be converted to ureido, .beta.-malicamino carboxyamido or sulfonamido groups by isocyanate, epoxy succinic acid, acid halide, anhydride, sulfonyl halide or active ester aminemodifying agents. The resultant soluble product when dissolved in a physiological buffer provides a viscoelastic solution having therapeutic application in a variety of surgical procedures, particularly in ophthalmic surgery. This viscoelastic solution "melts," i.e., exhibits a dramatic loss of viscosity, when subjected to temperatures of between 32.degree. and 48.degree. C. The resultant insoluble product is suspended in physiological buffer and useful in tissue augmentation. The suspension containing the insoluble product exhibits a dramatic loss in viscosity at temperatures between about 40.degree. and 70.degree. C.
