1. A compound of hyaluronate and protein, called hyaluronate–protein was isolated from pooled human synovial fluids by caesium chloride density-gradient ultracentrifugation. 2. The isolated hyaluronate–protein was labelled with [125I]iodide and the following studies were done. (a) Ultracentrifugation in caesium chloride showed that the protein moiety (125I counts) and hyaluronate (hexuronate) sedimented together in the middle of the gradient. (b) The labelled hyaluronate–protein was treated with trypsin, and ultracentrifugation showed that peptide fragments (125I counts) were dispersed throughout the gradient, indicating proteolytic digestion. Hyaluronate sedimented in the middle of the gradient. (c) The labelled hyaluronate–protein was digested with streptococcal hyaluronidase, and ultracentrifugation showed that hyaluronate fragments were dispersed throughout the gradient, indicating digestion of the polysaccharide. The protein moiety, without attached hyaluronate, now sedimented at the top of the gradient. (d) Ultracentrifugation of labelled hyaluronate–protein in 4m-guanidinium chloride showed that protein and hyaluronate sedimented together. 3. These studies confirm that hyaluronate is combined with a small quantity of protein in normal human synovial fluid. A mild method for the rapid isolation of hyaluronate–protein in good yield is described.

An AMTI knee simulator was used to evaluate the wear of UHMWPE tibial inserts which were gamma sterilized in air and displayed a high or low level of oxidation. After 5 million cycles, four out of five samples from the high oxidation group displayed subsurface cracking and/or delamination. The five specimens in the low oxidation group experienced burnishing only. These results indicate that gamma irradiation in air together with high oxidation due to shelf aging can increase susceptibility to wear. The appearance of the wear scars indicates that knee simulator testing is a valid method of producing burnishing, cracking, and delamination similar to that seen in-vivo. [S0742-4787(00)04301-0]
