An zn vztro method has been developed for screening of candidate biomaterials in an early phase of their development. The test is based on L-929 mouse fibroblast cultures and their response to powdered polymer samples. I t applies microscopic observation for the detection of morphological changes, u

In the recent paper by R. M. Rice, et a1.l I am quoted as having said "that no compound which is nontoxic in uitro will be toxic by intramuscular implantation."2 The impression created is that this was a general conclusion reached by me in this review paper. In actuality, although a very similar sta
## Abstract An __in vivo__ method is described for screening polymeric materials for biocompatibility. The test is based on grading acute and subacute tissue reactions at 7 and 28 days, respectively, following implantation in rats. The method is reproducible and reliable. It is designed to provide
## Abstract Polymer coatings are essential for local delivery of drug from the stent platform. In designing a DES, it is critical to balance the hydrophilic and hydrophobic components of the polymer system to obtain optimal biocompatibility, while maintaining controlled drug elution. This study inv
