Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 155 words
A flexible continuous film comprising a homogeneous physical admixture of: a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of collagen, elastin and polypeptides derived from collagen and elastin and having a molecular weight of at least 2,000 to 20,000, wherein when said polypeptide is derived from collagen and elastin it is present at a level of 25 to 75 percent by weight based on the weight of the admixture and when said polypeptide is collagen or elastin it is present at a level of 3 to 5 percent by weight based on the weight of said admixture; 20 to 40 percent by weight of a water soluble non-volatile plasticizer having a boiling point in excess of about 150° C.; and 10 to 20 percent by weight of a film-forming polyvinyl alcohol which is soluble in hot water and insoluble in cold water; said film, when moistened, will exude said polypeptide while remaining as a continuous film.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 155 words
A flexible continuous film comprising a homogeneous physical admixture of: a polypeptide selected from the group consisting of collagen, elastin and polypeptides derived from collagen and elastin and having a molecular weight of at least 2,000 to 20,000, wherein when said polypeptide is derived from collagen and elastin it is present at a level of 25 to 75 percent by weight based on the weight of the admixture and when said polypeptide is collagen or elastin it is present at a level of 3 to 5 percent by weight based on the weight of said admixture; 20 to 40 percent by weight of a water soluble non-volatile plasticizer having a boiling point in excess of about 150° C.; and 10 to 20 percent by weight of a film-forming polyvinyl alcohol which is soluble in hot water and insoluble in cold water; said film, when moistened, will exude said polypeptide while remaining as a continuous film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 1 wherein said polypeptide is selected from the group consisting of collagen and polypeptides derived from collagen.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 31 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 1 wherein when said film-forming polypeptide is derived from collagen and elastin it is present at a level of 40 to 60 percent by weight.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 1 wherein said plasticizer is present at a level of 30 to 40 percent by weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 12 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 1 wherein said plasticizer is glycerol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 11 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 1 mounted on a backing.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 12 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 6 wherein said backing is fabric.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 12 words
The flexible continuous film of claim 7 wherein said backing is nonwoven.
