Longer Acting Injectable: Continuous, Linear Release of a Progestin Contraceptive From an Oxidized Porous Silicon Host

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Progestin drugs are loaded into a mesoporous silicon dioxide host by melt‐infiltration. Drugs that decompose at or close to their melting point can be loaded by the addition of cholesterol, which acts as a melting point suppressor. High mass loading of the drug is achieved, and dissolution of the composite is controlled by the nanoscale properties of ...

Poly(hydroxy‐oxazolidone) Thermoplastic Elastomers for Safer, Greener and Customizable Blood‐Contacting Medical Devices

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A poly(hydroxy‐oxazolidone) (PHOx) is synthesized from CO2‐based precursors, enabling the up‐cycling of this waste material. After synthesis, PHOx shows thermoplastic properties, and can therefore be processed by many temperature‐dependent techniques. PHOx is hemocompatible, anti‐adhesive, and biocompatible, which is demonstrated in vitro and in vivo ...
