2. Neurosurgery OT Duraform Bovine collagen
A textured top surface makes DURAFORM Implant easy to use
The soft, smooth bottom side gently molds to the complex surface structures of the brain and dura, minimizing undesirable creases and folds.

3. Neurosurgery OT SURGICEL
Made of an oxidized cellulose polymer(the unit is polyanhydroglucuronic acid)

4. Neurosurgery OT Spongostan
Is a sterile, water-insoluble, malleable, porcine gelatin absorbable sponge intended for haemostatic use by applying to a bleeding surface.

5. Neurosurgery OT Biodegradable Bone
Tissue engineered biomaterials may be preferable for covering of bone defects because they work on the principle of regeneration (utilizing body’s inherent repair capability.

6. The polyvinyl alcohol-tetraethylorthosilicate-alginate-calcium oxide (PTAC) biocomposite cryogels are a new kind of biodegradable and inorganic - organic composite bone biomaterials which have been specifically designed for bone regeneration.

7. We will construct biodegradable synthetic bone flap substitute material (PTAC biocomposite cryogel) and implant in cranial defect(s) during cranioplasty in pediatric patients.
Normal bone formation along with resorption of the biodegradable material will be assessed radiologically on follow up.

8. HIV Protection Kit Gown:
These kits are made using non-woven fabric imported from Europe.

9. Antiviral Gown
Non woven fabric is used as a material for developing surgical gown.
Three layers of fabrics were used.
The outer layer polypropylene nonwoven fabric is used with basic weight of 30 g/m2 
Middle with breathable polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) film with 0.4 micron with basic weight of 15 g/m2 
Inner layer as polyester nonwoven fabric with basic weight of 25 g/m2. Polypropylene is having a moisture regain of 0% and good liquid repellency.
Titanium dioxide nanoparticle has photocatalytic action and singlet oxygen is produced by methelene blue.

10. Titanium dioxide nanoparticle
The Polypropylene nonwoven fabric was coated with 1% nano dispersion with material to liquor ratio of 1:20 and 0.5% Anionic binder.
The nonwoven fabric was finished with pad-dry-cure method.

12. Gaymar medi therm III(Cold)
Cooling Blanket
single patient use, lightweight polymer with non-woven fabric on both sides

13. Convective Warming Device
Snuggle Warm® Convective Warming Blankets are soft, flexible and durable, and cover a variety of clinical applications, including partial and full body warming for all applications.
