## Abstract Peripheral nerve regeneration has been evaluated using a biodegradable nerve conduit, which is made of a 1‐ethyl‐3‐(3‐dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC)/__N__‐hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) cross‐linked gelatin. The EDC/NHS crosslinked gelatin (ENG) conduit is brownish in appearance, and

## Abstract Chitosan, a nature biodegradable material, has good biocompatibility but poor physical properties to serve as a nerve conduit. In this study, polylactic acid (PLA) was added to chitosan to form a composite material with improved intensity and elasticity, to be used as nerve conduits. Th
## Abstract This study proposed a novel and biodegradable nerve guide conduit in its applicability to peripheral nerve regeneration. A naturally occurring proanthocyanidin (PA) was selected as a cross‐linking reagent in preparing the PA‐crosslinked gelatin (PCG) conduit. Experimental results indica
