Causes of some complications such as pyrexia, fluid accumulation and unusual scar formation around the graft in "Hemashield" implantation were examined both in vivo and in vitro. In an animal study, the grafts were implanted in the thoracic descending aorta of 9 dogs, and were explanted at 2 weeks after implantation. Macroscopic evaluation of the explants revealed that the graft had no infection, but fluid accumulation and a thick scar layer formation were noticed in the pleural cavity and around the graft. Microscopical observations demonstrated that the impregnated collagen was almost absorbed and numerous plasma cells, lymphocytes and macrophages had infiltrated in the interstices of the Dacron fibers, but neither fibroblasts nor capillary blood vessels. Numerous erythrocyte were also noticed in the graft wall. In vivo experiment of the extract from Hemashield, endotoxin and/or (1-3) beta-D-glucan were detected by the special quantitative methods; Toxicolor and Endospecy. These results indicated that the graft had some contaminants which contained a certain amount of endotoxin, (1-3) beta-D-glucan, resulting in non-infective inflammatory responses around the graft.

We synthesized novel monofunctional and bifunctional benzoxazines having imide groups. Brown-colored transparent films were obtained by curing the benzoxazines up to 240 °C. Monofunctional benzoxazine gave brittle film, but bifunctional benzoxazine gave tough film. Viscoelastic analysis revealed that glass transition temperature of the polybenzoxazine film obtained from the bifunctional benzoxazine was 289 °C, about 90 °C higher than that of a typical polybenzoxazine. Thermogravimetric analyses revealed that the introduction of imide groups was also effective to improve the thermal stability of polybenzoxazines.
