“…and randomly distributed on the backbone allowed modulating solubility and degradation rate [69][70][71]. So, associating polymers, hydrogels, degradation micelles, macromolecular prodrugs, graft polyesters, and bioactive compounds has been synthesized and characterized [72][73][74][75]. Only during the synthesis of the various homopolymers and copolymers, it was difficult to obtain controlled high molecular weights.…”

“…However, these ionic and non-charged polyesters will be used on one hand for their hydrophilic properties and on the other hand for allowing chemical modifications and reacting with bioactive or targeting molecules [73,74,94]. Moreover, −OH functions were often used for their opsonization phenomenon and their excellent blood compatibility and resistance to thrombus formation [54] and carboxylic groups for their favor cell attachment and proliferation.…”

“…The ideal biomaterial for wound dressing must be possessing properties such as biocompatibility, gaseous exchange, flexibility, biodegradability, safeguard to prevent the bacterial infection and remove excess exudates [4,5]. Some of the commonly used polymers in medicine namely silicones, have been suspected to cause cancer and thus must be replaced by some biocompatible polymers [6]. Among various available biogenic polymers, polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) is a biopolymer produced by various bacterial cells under imbalanced growth condition [7].…”
