Abstract excerpt
Histological and biochemical investigations were carried out in order to evaluate the chondrocyte compatibility of a recently developed biodegradable polyesterurethane-foam (DegraPol-foam). Therefore, cell adhesion, cell growth, and the preservation of chondrocyte phenotype was measured in rat xyphoid chondrocytes seeded on DegraPol-foam. Chondrocytes, isolated from xyphoids of adult male rats, exhibited...
