## Abstract Biodegradability of cellulose fabrics was evaluated by use of a soil burial test, an activated sewage sludge test, and an enzyme hydrolysis. Surface changes after biodegradation were observed by optical microscopy. From Xβray diffraction analysis (XRD), changes in the crystallinities an
The in vitro solubilization and degradation of regenerated cellulose was studied under conditions which approximate those found in vivo, when the material is used as an adhesion barrier to assist normal wound repair. Factors affecting solubilization which were examined included the effects of serum
