Novel Biodegradable Poly (Glycolic Acid) Dual-Layer Packaging System Using Spray Coating
Polymer films are essential barriers for food and consumer packaging, but because they are durable, they contribute to accumulating waste that infiltrates ecosystems, enters food chains as microplastics, and overwhelms disposal systems. This research responds by developing a biodegradable packaging …

Bioresorbable Electrospun Tissue Scaffolds of Poly(ethylene glycol-b-lactide) Copolymers for Bone Tissue Engineering
Poly(α-hydroxy esters) are a class of biocompatible resorbable polyesters including poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(glycolic acid) (PGA) that are FDA-approved for clinical use. Preliminary tissue culture studies have demonstrated that these poly(α-hydroxy esters) support bone tissue development …
