The degradation of poly(propylene fumarate-coethylene glycol) hydrogels was examined in vitro in phosphate-buffered saline at pH 7.4 and in vivo in a subcutaneous rat model. These hydrogels have potential application as biodegradable, injectable cardiovascular stents, and, as such, their mass loss,
The in vitro cytotoxicity and in vivo biocompatibility of poly(propylene fumarate-co-ethylene glycol) [P(PFco-EG)] hydrogels were assessed in order to investigate the influence of poly(ethylene glycol) molecular weight and copolymer composition. These materials have application as injectable cardiov
