The specific aim of the present study was to investigate the biodegradation & biocompatibility studies of novel natural film-forming polymer, the dammar gum (DG). Gum Dammar is a natural resinous material of plant Shorea javanica, family-Dipterocarpaceae. It contains about 40% alpha-resin (resin that dissolves in alcohol), 22% beta-resin, 23% dammarol acid and 2.5% water.
