Development and evaluation of biocompatible inks for the local measurement of oxygen using in vivo EPR

Abstract: In vivo EPR oximetry is a powerful minimally invasive method that allows the measurement of oxygen in tissues through the use of a paramagnetic probe. In the present study, we investigated new strategies for preparing biocompatible inks containing carbon black particles (Printex U), which could be used as oxygen sensors. The carbon black particles were dispersed in solutions of biocompatible polymers of carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) or polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP).

“…Results indicate that the SAR measured in our clinical setup is well below the established limits (53). We have initiated the clinical studies using India ink as an oximetry probe, which is sensitive to tissue pO 2 , is very stable in tissue, and already has been approved for use in human subjects (8,37,38,61). This ink is prepared using components that are already in use in various pharmaceutical preparations.…”

“…CMC is known to be bioabsorbable for high molecular weight materials and has good biocompatibility; therefore, it has been used as a solvent or coupling material for in vivo studies of biomaterials (13,14) . The histopathological results indicated inflammatory cell infiltration around the precipitated fragments of both silver and resin, with hemorrhage and capillary dilatation/proliferation followed by the appearance of foamy macrophages and fibrosis.…”

“…The India ink used in these experiments is prepared under strictly controlled conditions with components that are already in use in various pharmaceutical preparations. The reproducibility of this ink and its sensitivity to oxygen in different batches has been thoroughly examined and is found to be very satisfactory [14]. The ink (20 q was injected under the first metatarsal head, the site of greatest risk for patients with petipheral vascular diseases, anda series of pO2 measurements were carried out over the last year (Fig.…”
