## Abstract This study used an __in vitro__ environment that simulated the microenvironment at the adherent cell‐material interface to reproduce and accelerate the biodegradation of poly(ether urethane) (PEU) and poly(carbonate urethane) (PCU). Polyurethane films were treated __in vitro__ for 24 da

## Abstract Segmented poly(urethane urea)s (PUUs) with hard segments derived only from methyl 2,6‐diisocyantohexanoate (LDI) without the use of a chain extender have previously been described. These materials, which contain hard segments with multiple urea linkages, show exceptionally high strain c
## Abstract The biological safety of degradation products from degradable biomaterials is very important. In this study a new method is proposed to test the cytotoxicity of these degradation products with the aim to save time, laboratory animals, and research funds. A biodegradable polyurethane (PU
