Poly(etherurethane urea) (PEUU) elastomers when employed as biomedical devices may be susceptible to extraction upon implantation. Four PEUU elastomers containing a single PEUU formulation, but varying in terms of their additives, were subjected to an in vitro extraction procedure. The

Aqueous dispersions of poly(ester-imide)s [P(E-I)s] have been prepared by dispersing the P(E-I)s in water without any external solubilizing agents. P(E-I)s were prepared from anhydride-terminated polyester prepolymer and diisocyanate. The -COOH groups in the polymer were then neutralized using triethylamine and

Collision induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry experiments were performed to unequivocally separate compounds from an isobaric mixture of two products. The Survival Yield curve was obtained and is shown to consist in a linear combination of the curves corresponding to

Biomaterials, 17(22), 2163-2172 (1996-11-01)
Hybrid biomaterials have been produced by the interaction of polyurethane oligomers with both fresh and glutaraldehyde-fixed porcine pericardium. The hybrid biomaterials so formed were translucent with occasional white streaks and/or spots, had increased stiffness (to touch) but remained pliable. No

Journal of biomaterials science. Polymer edition, 8(10), 779-795 (1997-01-01)
Although biodegradation of model poly(ester-urethane)s and poly(ether-urethane)s has been demonstrated using a single enzyme system (cholesterol esterase (CE) in vitro, in vivo biodegradation most likely involves many processes acting together. In this study, the physical (film vs textured surface) and
