Purified human umbilical hyaluronate and a commercial preparation of rooster comb hyaluronate (Healon) intended for intra-articular viscosupplementation did not demonstrate the same degree of boundarylubricating ability as bovine synovial fluid or its purified lubricating mucin, lubricin (p < 0.01).
The patient suffers a lot when cystoscopes or catheters are inserted into the urinary system. In order to lower friction whilst being non-poisonous, nonfimgoid, and meeting other medical requirements, a new bionic medical lubricant has been synthesised. In tests imitating the friction condition betw
