Immune response to polyglycolic acid implants.
Cytological analysis of material aspirated from the effusion which occasionally develops around a polyglycolic acid (PGA) osteosynthesis implant showed a predominance of inflammatory monocytes and in particular lymphocytes. In order to discover whether PGA implants are immunologically inert, density gradient-isolated peripheral blood mononuclear cells were cultured in 0.2 ml of 10% delta FCS-RP...
متن کاملThe effects of dynamic compressive loading on biodegradable implants of 50-50% polylactic Acid-polyglycolic Acid.
Biodegradable implants that release growth factors or other bioactive agents in a controlled manner are investigated to enhance the repair of musculoskeletal tissues. In this study, the in vitro release characteristics and mechanical properties of a 50:50 polylactic acid/polyglycolic acid two phase implant were examined over a 6-week period under no-load conditions or under a cyclic compressive...
متن کاملSkin closure with polyglycolic acid (Dexon).
Cosmetically satisfactory scars were achieved in 94.5% of skin crease orchidopexy wounds sutured with subcuticular polyglycolic acid. Of twenty-seven similar wounds closed with interrupted black silk sutures 18.5% developed hypertrophy at the medial end.
متن کاملPolyglycolic acid microneedles modified with inkjet-deposited antifungal coatings.
In this study, the authors examined use of piezoelectric inkjet printing to apply an antifungal agent, voriconazole, to the surfaces of biodegradable polyglycolic acid microneedles. Polyglycolic acid microneedles with sharp tips (average tip radius = 25 ± 3 μm) were prepared using a combination of injection molding and drawing lithography. The elastic modulus (9.9 ± 0.3 GPa) and hardness (588.2...
متن کاملPolyglycolic acid suture in peripheral nerve II: sutured sciatic nerve.
This experiment investigates the holding property of polyglycolic acid suture in repair of divided dog sciatic nerves and the influence of absorption of this synthetic material on regeneration. The conclusion is that PGA maintains its tensile strength sufficently long to allow both physical union and good regeneration of the divided nerve. The suture absorption does not influence regeneration.
