Abstract:
To evaluate the biocompatibility of a newly developed degradable class of
polyesterurethanes and their possible use as biomaterials, we investigated the cell and
tissue interactions with these polymers using a small number of chemical base entities. The
polymers were prepared by chain extension with diisocyanates of PHB/HV-diol and either
PCL-diol or Diorez, another aliphatic polyester-diol. Regardless of the chemical composition
of the four tested polyesterurethanes used as substrates, no morphological difference was ...
