Two methacrylate orthopaedic bone cements were compared as delivery systems for bioactive human growth hormone (hGH). These were London Hospital Bone Cement (LHBC) and a poly(methylmethacrylate)(PMMA) bone cement. A uniquely precise bioassay for hGH, named ESTA, was used. It was adapted to assess bo
## Abstract Topical thrombins are locally active hemostatic agents that can be used to minimize blood loss during any surgery. The aim of this study was to design and investigate a thrombinβcontaining biodegradable hemostyptic device with an optimized drug release profile to promote local blood clo
The authors have developed a new method of drug delivery into the brain using implantable biodegradable microspheres. In this study, this method was used to provide localized and sustained delivery of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) after the surgical resection of glioblastoma. This antimetabolite and radiose
