## Abstract The biodegradable behaviors of monofilament suture made from bacterial biopolyester poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐__co__‐4‐hydroxybutyrate) (P3/4HB) was investigated both in lipase solution and by implant into rat tergal muscles. Results showed that the monofilament suture lost its tensile str
## Abstract **Summary:** The preparation of mono‐ and multifilament sutures incorporating ibuprofen as an anti‐inflammatory agent is considered. Poly(__p__‐dioxanone) monofilament samples can be loaded by a molecular diffusion process using a swelling agent such as dichloromethane. The mechanical p
