A novel route for the production of chitosan/poly(lactide-co-glycolide) graft copolymers for electrospinning.
Both chitosan and polylactide/polyglycolide have good biocompatibility and can be used to produce tissue engineering scaffolds for cultured cells. However the synthetic scaffolds lack groups that would facilitate their modification, whereas chitosan has extensive active amide and hydroxyl groups which would allow it to be subsequently modified for the attachment of peptides, proteins and drugs....
متن کاملEffects of lactide monomer on the hydrolytic degradation of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) 85L/15G.
The hydrolytic degradation of oriented poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) 85 L/15 G (PLGA 85/15) sample materials with various amounts of lactide monomer was monitored in vitro at 37 °C. The materials were manufactured from medical grade PLGA 85/15 by a two-step melt extrusion-die drawing process. Results showed that the hydrolytic degradation rate depended highly on the lactide monomer content, whic...
متن کاملPoly (lactide -co- glycolide) Fiber: An Overview
Co-polymers of lactide and glycolide, referred to as PLGA, have generated tremendous interest because of their excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and mechanical strength. Various polymeric devices like microspheres, microcapsules, nanoparticles, pellets, implants, and films have been fabricated using these polymers. They can be transformed by spinning into filaments for subsequent fab...
متن کاملSimvastatin Release from Poly(lactide-co-glycolide)
Statins, a group of potent inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl Coenzyme A reductase in cholesterol biosynthesis pathway, have been widely used as a cholesterol lowering drug. The plieotrophic effect of statins on bone metabolism in long-term usage has been begun to be studied during recent years and several in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated the ability of statins to promote ex...
متن کاملFluorescence imaging enabled poly(lactide-co-glycolide).
UNLABELLED Fluorescent biomaterials have attracted significant research efforts in the past decades. Herein, we report a new series of biodegradable, fluorescence imaging-enabled copolymers, biodegradable photoluminescent poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (BPLP-co-PLGA). Photoluminescence characterization shows that BPLP-co-PLGA solutions, films and nanoparticles all exhibit strong, tunable and stable...
