Long-term Degradation of Electrospun Poly(ε-caprolactone) Fibre Yarns In Vivo: A 12-month Study

摘要

This study demonstrates the long-term degradation of electrospun PCL yarns in vivo. Scaffold molecular mass decreased gradually over time and shrinkage was evident. Coupled with cell infiltration suggests these scaffolds could provide an appropriate physical structure and degradation rate to facilitate and support new tendon tissue ingrowth.
