Degradation of Poly(ε-caprolactone) Resorbable Multifilament Yarn under Physiological Conditions

POLYMERS, 15(18).

By: M. Deshpande  n, A. Girase n  & M. King n 

Contributors: M. Deshpande  n, A. Girase n  & M. King n 

author keywords: Poly(epsilon-caprolactone); biodegradable; physiological degradation; biomedical textiles; tissue engineering scaffold
TL;DR: It is predicted that a scaffold structure incorporating PCL multifilament yarn would undergo complete resorption in approximately 14 months under physiological conditions, such as in PBS solution at a pH of approximately 7 and a temperature of 37 °C. (via Semantic Scholar)
