In vitro degradation of poly( L-lactic acid) fibers was investigated for a period of 16 weeks in Ringer solution at 37ΠC. 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 In this study, the previously reported porous threeβdimensional poly(Lβlactic acid) (PLLA) scaffolds reinforced by the chitin fibers (PLLA/CF) with and without the link were evaluated __in vitro__. Firstly, pH value of the phosphate buffered saline lixiviums of the PLLA/CF with differen
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
The in vitro degradation of glycine-DL-lactic acid copolymers was studied as a function of the composition. These polydepsipeptides were prepared by ring-opening copolymerization of 6-methyl-2,5-morpholinedione and DL-lactidc. The degradation of discs of the copolymers was performed in a phosphate b
## 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
