In vitro degradation profiles and in vivo biomaterial–tissue interactions of microwell array delivery devices

Abstract: To effectively apply microwell array cell delivery devices their biodegradation rate must be tailored towards their intended use and implantation location. Two microwell array devices with distinct degradation profiles, either suitable for the fabrication of retrievable systems in the case of slow degradation, or cell delivery systems capable of extensive remodeling using a fast degrading polymer, were compared in this study. Thin films of a poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(butylene terephthal

“…Either in cattle or sheep CE cysts, the presence of a granulomatous reaction is indicative of a foreign body response, which has been widely studied in the biomaterials field [ 25 27 ], where after an acute inflammatory reaction, there is chronic inflammation, followed by either granulomatous tissue or the development of a fibrous capsule [ 27 ]. Here we report that in non-fertile CE cysts, this fibrous capsule changes its location; in cattle it is found surrounding the chronic inflammation tissue, whereas in sheep is found directly surrounding the laminated layer.…”

“…So, replacing all or some of the natural L -amino acids with D -amino acids, and then comparing their differences in degradability, would gain important insights in factors affecting degradability of polymers. Polymer materials were either degraded as grounded powder in phosphate buffered solution (PBS) that simulates human body environment or as membrane in aqueous soil suspension that simulates soil degradation [ 25 , 26 , 27 ].…”
