“…16,17 Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in the field of biodegradable polymers and, consequently, in computational activities to explore various molecular properties of biodegradable polymers. [18][19][20][21] Poly(lactide) (PLA) and its copolymers are among the most widely used synthetic biodegradable polymers for drug encapsulation and delivery with several products for controlled release of proteins or peptides on the market. [22][23][24] Biodegradable polymers such as PLA and its copolymers are also useful for applications in biotechnology (e.g., medical devices, implants, and tissue engineering), packaging, and other areas.…”
