  • Title: Preparation of cross-linked poly[(epsilon-caprolactone)-co-lactide] and biocompatibility studies for tissue engineering materials.
    Author: Miyasako H, Yamamoto K, Nakao A, Aoyagi T.
    Journal: Macromol Biosci; 2007 Jan 05; 7(1):76-83. PubMed ID: 17238234.
    Abstract:
    In this study, cross-linked materials were prepared using the branched macromonomer with different CL/LA molar ratios, and feasibility studies for tissue engineering were carried out. The thermal and mechanical properties of these materials depended on the CL/LA compositions; however, there was no change in the wettability of each material. The HeLa cells adhesion and growth on the CL-LA7030c were equal to that on the commercially available polystyrene dish. The protein absorption experiment using the FBS proteins revealed that the materials with well-grown cells showed better adhesion of the proteins. [photo: see text]
