In Vitro and In Vivo Characterization of Biodegradable Reactive Isocyanate‐Terminated Three‐Armed‐ and Hyperbranched Block Copolymeric Tissue Adhesives

Abstract: Tissue adhesives are an attractive class of biomaterials, which can serve as a treatment for meniscus tears. In this study, physicochemical and adhesive properties of novel biodegradable three-armed- and hyperbranched block copolymeric adhesives are evaluated. Additionally, their degradation in vitro and in vivo, and the tissue reaction after subcutaneous injection in rats are assessed. The developed adhesives have sufficient adhesive strength to meniscus tissue after curing (66-88 kPa). Networks based on the … Show more

“…However, the systems described in the literature, as well as commercially available tissue adhesives do not bring the ideal answer to all the basic requirements, hence a lot of research still needs to be performed for PU adhesives to be used as surgical adhesive. Only a few systems are based on renewable biobased PU solutions compared to the large variety of fossil-based PU tissue adhesives recently developed [ [290] , [291] , [292] ].…”

“…57 Methacrylate derivatives are used as bone glue in the literature, but their use is limited due to the lack of biodegradability. 58 In other bone adhesives, bioactive glass was about 20%, 59 isocyanate-terminated hyperbranched block copolymer was about %10, 60 and polylactide methacrylate/tricalcium phosphate was 20−40% 61 biodegradable. Therefore, our formulation is within the biodegradability limits of bone adhesives.…”
