The effect of phagocytosis of poly(L-lactic acid) fragments on cellular morphology and viability [PDF]
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of phagocytosed poly(L-lactic acid) particles on the morpholgy and viability of phagocytes, mainly macrophages. Therefore, predegraded poly(L-lactic acid) (P-PLLA) and nontreated PLLA (N-PLLA) particles,

Oxidative degradation of polylactide (PLA) and its effects on physical and mechanical properties [PDF]
The thermo-oxidative degradation of polylactide (PLA) films was studied between 70 and 150 C. It was shown that the oxidative degradation of PLA leads to a random chain cission responsible for a reduction of the molar mass.

Development of 5-FU Loaded poly lactic-co-glycolic acid Nanoparticles for Treatment of Lung Cancer
Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 84% of all lung cancer types diagnosed so far. Every year, regardless of gender, the NSCLC targets many communities worldwide. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is a uracil-analog anticancer compound.

Maintenance of chondrocyte phenotype during expansion on PLLA microtopographies
Articular chondrocytes are difficult to grow, as they lose their characteristic phenotype following expansion on standard tissue culture plates. Here, we show that culturing them on surfaces of poly(L-lactic acid) of well-defined microtopography allows ...
