Poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) is widely used in a variety of tissue engineering and drug delivery applications due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility. But PLGA surfaces are usually hydrophobic which limited the loading and seeding capacities for cells, especially semiadherent immune cells.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
