The specific embodiment
The present invention includes antimicrobial lens, it does not have blushing basically, these lens comprise contact lens, are made up of contact lens basically or are made up of contact lens, this contact lens comprises the chemical compound of polymer and at least a release silver, wherein silver is released from described contact lens during use, the speed constant that is had uses first _ order kinetics equation to calculate, and is about 1 day of maximum -1, and initial silver concentration is about at least 10ppm.
Term " antimicrobial lens " lens that refer to have one or more following performances as used herein: suppress antibacterial or other microorganisms adhesion to lens, suppress antibacterial or other microorganisms grow on the lens and surface at lens on or in killing bacteria or other microorganisms in the zone of lens.For purpose of the present invention, antibacterial or other microorganisms exist antibacterial or other microorganisms to adhesion, antibacterial or other microorganisms of lens on growth on the lens and the surface at lens, be generically and collectively referred to as " microorganism cluster ".
Preferably, lens of the present invention have at least approximately>0.25, more preferably approximately>0.5, most preferably reduce (〉=90% inhibition) greater than about 1.0 the antibacterial alives or the logarithm of other microorganisms.This bacterioid or other microorganisms include but are not limited to, those organisms, the especially Pseudomonas aeruginosa that exists in eye, Acanthamoeba kind, staphylococcus aureus, escherichia coli, staphylococcus epidermidis and serratia marcescens.
The present invention relates to have the contact lens that the silver ion of prolongation discharges.As used herein " release of prolongation " be meant that in the time that prolongs silver ion discharges with the amount that is enough to suppress the microorganism cluster, the time of described prolongation is for example two days, preferred seven days, more preferably 14 days and in some cases nearly or more than 30 days.Therefore, the present invention allows to make device for eyes, and this device whole provides the antimicrobial sociability for this device for eyes in wearing with process at it.Have been found that the amount and the type that are introduced in the chemical compound of the release silver in the device for eyes by careful selection, can adjust the time that discharges silver ion.
Chemical reaction kinetic model well known by persons skilled in the art can be used for describing the one-level of silver ion from lens and discharge.In these models some is described in for example " physical chemistry " of F.Daniels and R.Albert, the 4th edition, John Wiley ﹠amp; Sons, Inc., New York, 300-346 page or leaf.For example, the speed of silver release can fit to first order kinetics.Discharge in the model in one-level, down, speed and remaining silver-colored total amount that silver discharges change pro rata at any given time.This can describe in order to following equation:
-d[Ag]/dt=k[Ag]
Wherein ,-d[Ag]/dt is the rate of change of silver content in the lens, with the unit representation of concentration/time, [Ag] is that the concentration and the k of silver are first order rate constants down at any given time.This equation can be rewritten as:
[Ag]=[Ag] 0e -kt
Wherein, [Ag] 0Be to be placed in the eye when lens, contact with tear fluids, when perhaps contacting with synthetical tear fluids model, the initial concentration of the silver in the lens, and t be lens in eye, contact with tear fluids, perhaps the retention time that contacts with synthetical tear fluids model.
Speed constant, k, the service test method is measured.The release of silver from lens can be placed in the synthetical tear solution and measures by will be a series of having same composition and the lens by identical method formation.Put into fresh synthetical tear solution or every day with lens and remove from tear solution every day, and analyze by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) or similar method, to measure its silver content.Use data fitting software, for example SigmaPlot 8.0, and the average silver under each interval was mapped to open-assembly time.Data are carried out the match of exponential trend line.For this Trendline, preferred R 2Value is higher, for example greater than about 0.80, and is preferably greater than about 0.90.Exponential fitting provides the rate constants k value, and it has the time -1Unit.Another metric that calculates the accuracy of k value is the standard error of k value, and it also uses the data fitting computed in software.
Stating kinetic model in the use describes in the release behavior of silver from contact lens, have been found that, some lens has a kind of so apparent constant basis of silver, itself in addition after 30 days, do not discharge yet, very slow discharge or may only under different conditions, discharge.This silver is called " non-release silver " at this.Because this silver is not released during wearing with the cycle in lens predetermined, therefore under each interval, non-release silver is deducted from lens silver steady state value.In the case, the first-rate model can be used for the release of (being called " can discharge silver " at this) of remaining silver of match.Therefore data fitting is become following equation:
[Ag]=[Ag] NR+[Ag] 0e -kt
Wherein, [Ag] is the total amount of the silver in the lens under the t at any time, [Ag] NRBe the concentration of non-release silver in the lens, and [Ag] 0It is the primary quantity that can discharge silver.
