The researchers found that the primary composite end point of target lesion failure occurred in 4 and 6 percent of patients treated with
biodegradable polymer sirolimus-eluting stents and durable polymer everolimus-eluting stents, respectively (difference, −1.6 percentage points; rate ratio, 0.59; posterior probability of superiority, 0.986).
(2015) observed that the heat capturing effect of
biodegradable polymer film was as pronounced as that of PE film.
Biodegradable polymers are a subset of the larger bioplastics sector.

This transaction builds on our dominant IP position in the field of
biodegradable polymers delivery platform for RNAi therapeutics," said Mohammad Azab, M.D., president and chief executive officer of Intradigm.
Polylactide (PLA), a polyester obtained from the monomer lactide (LA), is an example of a
biodegradable polymer to receive much attention.
"I am very excited to lead this clinical program evaluating the new generation of drug eluting stents with
biodegradable polymer and drug specifically designed for local application," said Bernard Chevalier, M.D., Centre Cardiologique Nord, Paris, France, principal investigator of NOBORI 1.
Firstly a special formulation of PVAXX Research and Development's
biodegradable polymer range, while secondly the engineers at the University of Warwick created a small transparent window in the case or cover in which they can embed a seed.
Under the terms of the agreement the companies would cooperate in developing new products for the treatment of chronic wounds and burns based on Artimplant's patented technology of
biodegradable polymer materials, Artimplant said.
The polymer microspheres, called porogens are made of a
biodegradable polymer that initially stabilizes the graft, but then can degrade gradually, leaving pores of the appropriate size for colonization by osteoblasts.
