Abstract
Abstract Polyvinylpyrrolidone was used as a main component of two new biomaterials: hydrogels wound dressings and therapeutic system for induction of labour. Ionizing radiation was applied as a tool for initiation of crosslinking and sterilization of these materials. Both products successfully passed clinical tests and have been commercialized. Draft of technology and some properties are shortly reviewed in this report.
