Summary

Introduction

Aliphatic polymer esters such as poly(l-lactide) (PLLA), polyglycolide (PGA), and their copolymers are widely used in tissue engineering applications. Editorial Polymeric Biomaterials for Tissue Engineering Applications 2011 Many noncytotoxic and biodegradable polymers have been fabricated into medical devices for diverse applications, including tissue repair, drug delivery, cancer therapy, and nonviral gene therapy. Polymeric biomaterials can be incorporated with natural materials and inorganic nanoparticles to obtain novel, unique, and synergetic properties for better performance.
