Nitric oxide (NO) is responsible for biological actions in mammals, ranging from the control of arterial pressure to immunological responses. In this study, Snitrosoglutathione (GSNO), a spontaneous NO donor, was incorporated in solid films of blended poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(vinyl pyrroli

Hydrogel blends were prepared from water-soluble polymers of poly(vinyl alcohol~inyl acetate) and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone). The method of preparation was optimized and different compositions of blends were characterized. The effect of thermal treatment and the introduction of an aldehydic crosslinkin
The formation of collagen fibrils in poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and in poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) was investigated using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). The water solutions of PVA and PVP containing 1%, 3% and 5% of collagen were cast onto glass plate. After slow solvent evaporation thin polymeric
Blends of crystallizable poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (d.s.c.). PVA with different degrees of hydrolysis (88 and 99 wt%) and PVP with different molecular weights (10 000 and 360 000 g mo1-1) were used. The blends exhib
