    Abstract : The regeneration of damaged tissues or organs using porous scaffolds which act as temporary guides for the patient’s own cells, i.e. tissue engineering, is a means to overcome the shortcomings of current standard medical treatments. READ MORE

  4. 2. Synthesis of functional degradable polymers by radical ring-opening polymerization

    Author : Jenny Undin; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Mats Johansson; Monica Ek; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tissue engineering; ring-opening polymerization; 2; 2´-azoisobutyronitrile; cyclic ketene acetals; 2-methylene- 1; 3; 6-trioxocane; 2-methylene- 1; 3-dioxepane; vinyl acetate; coopolymerization;

    Abstract : The increased demand for understanding cell-material interactions and subsequently create personalized implants for tissue engineering has resulted in an increased interest in developing new monomers with functional groups. The focus of the work presented in this thesis has been on the synthesis of functional monomers and the polymerization of these into functional amorphous aliphatic polyesters. READ MORE

  5. 3. Functional Degradable Polymers by a Radical Chemistry approach

    Author : Jenny Undin; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Anna Finne-Wistrand; Jukka Seppälä; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Abstract : One class of polymers that is inherently of great value for many applications is the aliphatic polyesters. Such polymers are very suitable for use as temporary guides, scaffolds, for tissue formation and other biomedical applications, due to their biocompatibility, degradability and appropriate mechanical properties.

  6. 4. Synthetic Pathways to Aliphatic Polyesters and Scaffold Design

    Author : Therese Tyson; Ann-Christine Albertsson; Elisabetta Ranucci; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymer chemistry; Polymerkemi;

    Abstract : As the field of tissue engineering progresses, a continuous development of scaffold fabrication techniques and suitable degradable materials is required to obtain scaffolds with tunable characteristics. This thesis has focused on the development of pathways to synthesize degradable aliphatic polyesters and on the design of highly porous scaffolds from this class of materials. READ MORE
