Technological parameters for the effective encapsulation of n-(1-phenethyl-4-piperidyl)propionanilide in poly(lactid-co-glycolide) (PLG) nanoparticles have been determined. Depending on the ratio of drug fractions adsorbed on the particle surface and associated with the polymer matrix, n-(1-phenethyl-4-piperidyl)propionanilide (200 microg/kg, i/m) loaded PLG nanospheres

Approaches to auricular reconstruction have shown improved outcome when a basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) slow-release system and fibrin spraying are combined with biodegradable polymers. More complex, three-dimensional structures, such as those that replicate the human auricle, are often lost
