Tissue engineering scaffolds polymers

PGA was one of the very first degradable polymers ever investigated for biomedical use. PGA found favor as a degradable suture, and has been actively used since 1970 [45 -7]. Because PGA is poorly soluble in many common solvents, limited research has been conducted with PGA-based drug delivery devices. Instead, most recent research has focused on short-term tissue engineering scaffolds. PGA is often fabricated into a mesh network and has been used as a scaffold for bone [48-51], cartilage [52-54], tendon [55, 56], and tooth [57]. [Pg.72]

Biodegradable polymers have found other applications that have been commercialised or are under investigation. Anastomosis rings have been developed as an alternative to suturing for intestinal resection. Tissue staples have also replaced sutures in certain procedures. Other applications currently under scrutiny include ligating clips, vascular grafts, stents, and tissue engineering scaffolds. [Pg.99]

These polymers are of increasing utility and are good examples of the cellular requirement for water in tissue engineering scaffolds. Polypho-sphazenes are degradable polymers that have been functionalized with a variety of biomolecules such as peptides and growth factors. ... [Pg.92]

Phase separation is another method that can be employed for the preparation of nanoscale sttucmres and is frequently used to prepare three-dimensional tissue-engineering scaffolds. Phase separation of a polymer solution can produce a polymer-rich domain and a solvent-rich domain and this morphology can be fixed by quenching under low temperamre conditions. [Pg.135]
