Application

Regenerez® Poly(glycerol sebacate) is a bioresorbable elastomer. The physical properties can be tuned from an elastomer to a thermoset(U.S. Patent No. 9.359,472) by curing PGS to the desired level of cross-linking. The inherent elastomeric properties of PGS can be used in a variety of applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

Features and Benefits

  • Bioresorbable.
  • Comprised of naturally occurring metabolites (glycerol and sebacic acid).
  • Tunable mechanical properties.
  • Versatile platform for further modification.
  • Closely simulates modulus of human tissue.
  • Enables healing without harmful immune response.

The integration of nanomaterials as electron mediators in electrochemical biosensors is taking on an essential role. Due to their high surface-to-volume ratio and high conductivity, metallic nanowires are an interesting option. In this paper, silver nanowires (AgNWs) were exploited to

No satisfactory method currently exists for bridging neural defects. Autografts lead to inadequate functional recovery, and most available artificial neural conduits possess unfavorable swelling and pro-inflammatory characteristics. This study examined the biocompatibility of a novel biodegradable elastomer, poly(glycerol sebacate) (PGS)
