“…Even in situ ations where the cell growth doesn't achieve the same levels as the control group, the scaffolds are still conducted to more extensive studies. This happens when fibroblast proliferation in culture presents a meaningful growth profile after two weeks, as well as an elongated morphology in the cells observed individually . Said behaviour is observed in the fibroblasts cultured over PLGA/PI fibers, reinforcing the viability of these fibers for tissue engineering, even presenting cell population growth in a slower pace compared to control group.…”

“…Moreover, PHB is a thermoplastic polymer containing physical and mechanical properties close to those of isotactic polypropylene, which can be extensively processed using conventional processing equipments. To enhance the processing and mechanical properties, the poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐ co ‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) with various ratios of 3‐hydroxyvalerate (HV) was introduced . The alternative approach to enhance the mechanical properties of PHB materials is to blend inorganic nanoparticle with PHB .…”

Electrospinning of biodegradable poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) (PHB)/magnetite and poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate‐co‐3‐hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV)/magnetite composites in 2,2,2‐trifluoroethanol (TFE) and chloroform are investigated to develop nonwoven nanofibrous structure. Ultrafine PHB/magnetite fibers are obtained and the resulting fiber diameters are in the range of 690–710 nm and 8.0–8.4 µm for the polymer dissolved in TFE and chloroform. The surface of PHB composites fiber fabricated in chloroform contains porous structures, which are not observed for the sample of PHB composites fiber dissolved in TFE. The fiber diameters for PHBV5/magnetite composites are in the range of 500–540 nm and 2.3–2.5 µm, depending on the use of TFE and chloroform. The average diameters of PHBV5/magnetite composite fibers are smaller than those of PHB/magnetite composites fiber. All electrospun PHB/magnetite and composite fibers are superparamagnetic. The degradation behaviors of PHB/magnetite and PHBV5/magnetite composite fibers were investigated using Caldimonas manganoxidans. For the fabricated composite fibers, it is found that the degradation rate increased with the increasing loading of magnetite nanoparticles. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate), commonly referred to PHBV, are promising materials for tissue engineering applications because they are biodegradable, non-toxic and biocompatible. The surface modified PHBV and hybrid PHBV allow favorable mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and degradation times within desirable time frames under specific physiological conditions. We will shortly summarize what has been achieved in the PHBV tissue engineering area, namely, the surface modification reactions including functionalization and grafting reactions, as well as blending or compositing with other materials to improve the mechanical, thermal and hydrophilic properties, and the influence on cell-material interactions is also overviewed in the recent 5 years (from 2008 to 2012).
