Abstract:To evaluate the biological safety of Rapamycin drug-eluting stent.10 experiments were conducted to evaluate biological safety according to the national standard GB/T16886.There was no hemolysis,systemic acute toxicity,cytotoxicity,genotoxicity,or intra-cutaneous irritation.The result of muscle implant test showed that the samples had local tissue mild irritation on 1 ,4 and 12 weeks after implantation,and no irritation on 26 weeks.The drug-related hepatotoxicity ,cardiotoxic,immune toxicity and abnormal lipid metab-olism were found in sub-chronic systemic toxicity.The medication of sub-chronic systemic toxicity test may not be applicable to such materials.The programs should be further adjusted.The samples possess biological safety in other tests.
