In vitro degradation of poly( L-lactic acid) fibers was investigated for a period of 16 weeks in Ringer solution at 37ะC. Two sets of fibers, with similar initial mechanical properties, molar mass, and crystallinity content, but markedly different in diameter (72 and 120 mm) were studied. Viscometri
## Abstract Polylactic acid is a polymer of great technological interest, whose excellent mechanical properties, thermal plasticity, and bioresorbability render it potentially useful for environmental applications, as a biodegradable plastic and as a biocompatible material in biomedicine. This arti
## Abstract Injectable calcium phosphate (CaโP) cement materials exhibit favorable osteocompatible behavior but are resorbed slowly because of a lack of a bone ingrowthโenabling macroporosity.
