“…In another study, biodegradable polyurethane microspheres synthesized from hydroxyethyl methacrylate, poly(hexamethylene carbonate) and lysine diisocyanate meant for biomacromolecule delivery and tissue regeneration applications were reported to have a water uptake of 98% after 3 days of immersion [ 68 ]. Moreover, with a biodegradable polyurethane synthesized from PEG and L-lactide and hexamethylene diisocyanate, the water uptake of the polyurethane scaffold was 229.7% after 10 h of water immersion [ 32 ]. The PEG and L-lactide-derived polyurethane scaffold was tested for in vitro cytocompatibility and in vivo biocompatibility for hypopharyngeal tissue engineering purposes.…”

“…Polyurethane samples were cut into 6 mm in diameter and the mass of the polyurethanes were in the range of 10–15 mg [ 32 ]. The specimens were immersed in 3 mL of phosphate buffered solution (PBS) (pH 7.4) containing 1 mg/mL of porcine pancreas lipase [ 33 ].…”

“…For water uptake, the polyurethane sample was removed from the PBS, washed thoroughly with ultrapure water and placed onto an absorbent paper prior to weighing the weight of the polyurethanes using an analytical balance. The percentage of water uptake was calculated according to the following formula: Percentage of water uptake,%=mass of0.25emwet0.25emsample,0.5emnormalgmass of0.25emdry0.25emsample,0.5emnormalgmass of0.25emdry0.25emsample,0.5emnormalg0.25emnormalx0.25em100 …”

“…Subsequently, the polyurethane samples were dried in an oven at 50 °C until constant mass was obtained. The mass loss formula was calculated according to the following formula: Percentage of mass loss,0.5em%=final weight,normalginitial weight,0.5emnormalginitial weight,0.5emnormalg0.25emnormalx0.25em100 …”

“…This makes them attractive candidates for minimally invasive surgical techniques or for delivering drugs to hard‐to‐reach areas. The liquid form prior to cross‐linking implies the potential of embedding any drug in the material, for its release from the slowly degrading polymer matrix . In a previous article, the potential of these UV‐cross‐linked networks was presented for the repair of small hernias in a rabbit model .…”
