BIOMEDICAL DEVICES COMPRISING MOLDED POLYETHYLENE COMPONENTS BACKGROUND [0001] The present invention relates to molded polyethylene components for use in conjunction with biomedical devices, including methods relating thereto. [0002] Polyethylene is often used in conjunction with biomedical devices because of, inter alia, its chemical resistance, biocompatibility, low specific gravity relative to metals, and wear resistance. Typically, polyethylene, having a purity sufficient for use in biological environments (e.g., minimal concentration of residual catalyst), has a low melt flow index, and in some instances essentially no melt flow index. Due to the hardness of low melt flow index polyethylene, production of biomedical devices and components therefrom is typically achieved through machining methods. While machining fabrication methods may allow for high precision components capable of meeting tight tolerances, these methods generally have a low throughput and can produce significant waste of the polyethylene material, both of which increase the cost of manufacturing. Further, machine fabrication can require large capital investments in equipment. Accordingly, methods and compositions that enable higher throughput manufacturing, like molding, may be desirable in the production of polyethylene-based biomedical device components. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0003] The present invention relates to molded polyethylene components for use in conjunction with biomedical devices, including methods relating thereto. [0004] I n one embodiment, the present invention provides for a biomedical device that comprises a molded polyethylene component that comprises a polyethylene composition that comprises polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less. [0005] I n another embodiment, the present invention provides for a biomedical device that comprises a conduit that comprises at least one wall defining an internal volume, the at least one wall comprising polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less. [0006] I n yet another embodiment, the present invention provides for a method that comprises providing a polyethylene composition melt that comprises polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less; and extruding the polyethylene composition melt t o form a molded polyethylene component of a biomedical device. [0007] I n another embodiment, the present invention provides for a method that comprises providing a polyethylene composition melt that comprises polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less; and injection molding the polyethylene composition melt to form a molded polyethylene component of a biomedical device. [0008] I n yet another embodiment, the present invention provides for a method that comprises providing a component of a biomedical device; and substantially encasing the component in polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less. [0009] I n yet another embodiment, the present invention provides for a method that comprises polymerizing at least one olefin in the presence of a catalyst so as t o form polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight, the at least one olefin being selected from the group consisting of ethylene, propylene, and/or butylene, and any combination thereof; and treating the polyethylene to yield a treated polyethylene having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less. [0010] I n another embodiment, the present invention provides for a method that comprises providing a sheet comprising a polyethylene composition that comprises polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less; and thermoforming the sheet into a molded polyethylene component of a biomedical device. [0011] I n yet another embodiment, the present invention provides for a method that comprises providing a sheet comprising a polyethylene composition that comprises polyethylene having a melt flow index of about 3.5 g/10 min or greater as measured by ASTM D1238 at 190°C/21.5 kg weight and having an ash content of about 500 ppm or less; and shrink wrapping the sheet onto a portion of a biomedical device or component thereof. [0012] The features and advantages of the present invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art upon a reading of the description of the preferred embodiments that follows. DETAILED DESCRIPTION [0013] The present invention relates to molded polyethylene components for use in conjunction with biomedical devices, including methods relating thereto. I n some instances, the molded polyethylene components may be biomedical devices themselves. [0014] The molded polyethylene components of the present invention for use in conjunction with biomedical devices may, in some embodiments, comprise polyethylene compositions with high purity that is melt flowable, thereby enabling the molded polyethylene components to be produced via molding and/or extruding methods. The ability to form a polyethylene component via these methods may advantageously enable faster production of high precision components as compared to machining methods. Molding method may also enable the production of complex and smaller components that are time and cost prohibitive if produced by machining methods. Further, the waste associated with manufacturing may be reduced as compared to machining methods. Accordingly, for at least these reasons, the ability to mold and/or extrude polyethylene components of the present invention for use in conjunction with biomedical devices as described herein may, in turn, reduce manufacturing costs, and consequently consumer costs, which especially in the biomedical sector may be especially advantageous. [0015] It should be noted that when "about" is provided at the beginning of a numerical list, "about" modifies each number of the numerical list. It should be noted that in some numerical listings of ranges, some lower limits listed may be greater than some upper limits listed. One skilled in the art will recognize that the selected subset will require the selection of an upper limit in excess of the selected lower limit.

  • Application Note 747014H HPLC Ana Llys Is of Th E M Ol Ecul Ar M Ass of L Ow-Mlmolecul Ar-Mhmass Hepari Ns Using the Method Described in the European Pharmacopoeia
    Application Note 747014H HPLC ana llys is o f the Mo lecul ar M ass of L ow-MlMolecu lar-MHMass Hepar ins using the method described in the European Pharmacopoeia Introduction Heparins are a class of mucopolysaccharide obtained from the porcine small intestine and is widely used in the pharmaceutical field as an anticlotting drug for the treatment and prevention of thromboembolism, treatment of disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome, and as an anti-blood clilotting agent when using extracorporeal bloo d ciliirculating apparatus such as bloo d dia lys isand artific ial heart/lung. Low-molecular-mass heparin is produced by enzymatic treatment and chemical manipulation of heparin and is used as an anticlotting drug similarly to heparin due to its more predictable pharmacokinetics. Low-molecular-mass heparin is classified as parnaparin, dalteparin, enoxaparin etc., by decomposition method and molecular weight distribution. In the European Pharmacopoeia 8th Edition (EP), the molecular weight measurement method is defined in the pharmaceutical products article of low-molecular-mass heparin, the average molecular weight and molecular weight distribution are also defined in the pharmaceutical article for low- molecular-mass heparin (sodium) and low-molecular-mass heparin (calcium) 1)-7). Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) combined with a UV-Visible and Refractive Index detection is defined as the measurement method. In the analytical method, a molecular weight calibration curve using low- molecular-mass heparin is created using low-molecular-mass heparin as the reference sample. In common molecular weight measurement methods using SEC, a calibration curve is created from the retention volume and molecular weight; this common method is used for oligomers and polymers where the molecular weight has already been determined and used as a standard sample.
