## Abstract As‐polymerized poly(L‐lactide) test rods were sterilized by seven different specially designed computer‐operated autoclaving programs. As a control, common hospital sterilization was performed. In all cases, the molecular weight decreased after sterilization. A short time high‐temperatu

Tyrosine-derived polycarbonates are a new class of degradable polymers that have possible biomedical applications. In this study, the effect of the two most common sterilization techniques, ethylene oxide and g-irradiation (0.3, 1.1, 3.9, 6.4, 10.6 Mrad), was evaluated for a family of four structura

## Abstract Poly(lactide‐__co__‐glycolide) (PLGA) is used in many biomedical applications because it is biodegradable, biocompatible, and FDA approved. PLGA can also be processed into porous tissue scaffolds, often through the use of organic solvents. A static light scattering experiment showed tha

Bioabsorbable polymers are increasingly being used in tissue engineering strategies. Despite the knowledge that some sterilization techniques may affect the physical properties of these polymers, this aspect is often overlooked. We speculate that the type of sterilization method used may influence c
