Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to modified polysaccharide ethers having a weight-averaged molecular weight of 40,000 to 500,000 g/mole, zero shear viscosity of more than 10 Pa·s, and pseudo-plasticity of more than 20. These modified polysaccharide ethers are obtainable by reacting cellulose-based polysaccharide ether(s) with at least one mesogenic modification agent or modified polysaccharide ethers, obtainable by reacting polysaccharide ether(s) selected from hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC), hydroxyethylmethyl cellulose (HEMC), methyl cellulose, and cellulose ethers with methyl and/or ethyl and/or propyl groups and mixtures thereof, with at least one mesogenic modification agent. These substances can be used to produce gel-like to stable aqueous preparations having viscoelastic flow properties, which are suited for use in the human body, particularly within the scope of ophthalmologic procedures.
