This study was designed to investigate the in vitro degradation of thin poly(DL-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) films for applications in retinal pigment epithelium transplantation and guided tissue regeneration. PLGA films of copolymer ratios of 75:25 and 50:50 were manufactured with thickness leve

## Abstract Poly(D,Lβlacticβ__co__βglycolic acid) has been extensively used as a controlled release carrier for drug delivery due to its good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical strength. Effects of dense and porous film's degradation behavior have been systematically investigated up
## Abstract Regeneration of peripheral nerves after injury is suboptimal. We now report the long term delivery of nerve growth factor (NGF) by biodegradable polyβlacticβ__co__βglycolic acid (PLGA) microspheres __in vitro__ and __in vivo__. Lactic to glycolic acid ratios of 50:50 and 85:15 were fabr
