Poly(esters) based on polylactide (PLA)‚ polyglycolide (PGA)‚ polycaprolactone (PCL)‚ and their copolymers have been extensively employed as biomaterials. Degradation of these materials yields the corresponding hydroxy acids‚ making them safe for in vivo use. Other bio- and environmentally degradable polymers include additional poly(ester)s‚ and natural polymers‚

What are Cells‚ DNA‚ Genes and Chromosomes? In the human body there are 50 trillion cells. Cells structures the human body‚ takes in nutrients and covert it into energy. Each cell has a set of instructions that create a person identity and it is encoded into humans Deoxyribonucleic (DNA). Genes are a long strand of DNA. The long strands of DNA are organized into piece called chromosomes. Every human have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Chromosomes are organized to short segment of DNA called genes. A
