In this work, the biocompatibility of a biomimetic, fully biodegradable ionomer phosphorylcholine (PC)-functionalized poly(butylene succinate) (PBS-PC) was investigated by means of hemolysis, platelet adhesion, protein adsorption and cytotox- icity experiments. The reference materials were poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and chloroethylphosphoryl functionalized poly(butylene succinate) (PBS-Cl). The hemolysis rates (HR) of the leaching solutions of PBS, PBS-Cl and PBS-PC were all lower than the safe value, and the rate of PBS-PC was reduced to 1.07%. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements showed that platelet adhesion and aggregation were significant on both PBS and PBS-Cl surface. In contrast, very few platelets were observed on PBS-PC surface. Bicinchoninic acid (BCA) measurements revealed that the adsorption amounts of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and bovine plasma fibrinogen (BPF) on PBS-PC surface were 52% and 72% reduction respectively compared with those on PBS surface. Moreover, non-cytotoxicity of both PBS-PC particles and its leaching solution was sug- gested by MTT assay using mouse L929 fibroblast cells. All the results demonstrated that the biocompatibility of PBS could be greatly improved by PC end-capping strategy. This PC functionalized polyester may have potential applications in biological environments as a novel carrier for controlled drug release and scaffold for tissue engineering. 相似文献
Biodegradable polyesters, poly(butylene succinate adipate) (PBSA), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), poly(ethylene succinate) (PES), poly(butylene succinate)/poly(caprolactone) blend (HB02B) and poly(butylene adipate terephthalate) (PBAT), were evaluated about degradability for enzymatic degradation by lipases and chemical degradation in sodium hydroxide solution. In enzymatic degradation, PBSA was the most degradable by lipase PS, on the other hand, PBAT containing aromatic ring was little degraded by eleven kinds of lipases. In 1N NaOH solution, degradation rate of PES with ethylene unit was extremely fast, in comparison with other polyesters. Interestingly the degradation rate of PBSA in enzymatic degradation by lipase PS was faster than in chemical degradation. 相似文献
Summary: High‐molecular‐weight poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) is prepared by the lipase‐catalyzed polymerization of dimethyl succinate and butane‐1,4‐diol via the formation of cyclic oligomers as a new strategy for the green production of bio‐based plastics. The cyclic oligomer is first produced by the lipase‐catalyzed condensation of dimethyl succinate and butane‐1,4‐diol in a dilute toluene solution using lipase from Candida antarctica, followed by the ring‐opening polymerization of the cyclic oligomer in a more concentrated solution or in bulk with the same lipase to produce PBS with an of 130 000. On the other hand, PBS is produced with an of 45 000 by direct polycondensation.
