transplantation and to improve the efficacy of the therapy (Tabata‚ 2009). Among the biomaterials‚ the natural and synthetic biodegradable ones are the most commonly used polymers. These polymers attracted interest because of their flexibility in chemical manipulation (Vazquez‚ Ruiz‚ Zúñiga‚ Koppel & Olvera‚ 2015). Natural polymers belong to the first biodegradable biomaterials. They have a high level of biocompatibility leading for the cells to easily attach and grow with excellent viability. However

Feasibility trails were carried out by melt granulation method. Method: Drug was passed from 40# sieve. Weigh accurately drug‚ polymer and other excipients. Wax was melted at 60-65°C. After that drug and other ingredient were added to wax and mixing of drug and wax was done. Prepared lump was passed from 10# sieve. Granules were dried at 40°C. Lubricant was added to granules. Granules were compressed to prepare tablets. Table 4.6: composition of trail F1 and F2 Ingredients F1 F2 Metformin Hydrochloride

A polymer is a molecule that is composed of repeating atoms. That doesn’t mean that the atoms are in order; the chains are all over the place going in every which way and this forms a type of polymer called a “crystalline polymer.” It was formed using a synthesis reaction meaning two simple substances are combined to make one‚ more complex molecule. This just

thermoplastic polymers are mixed to produce efficient composites. Natural fibers including wood‚ kenaf‚ coir‚ pineapple‚ rice starch and etc. are used to combine with the polymers. Addition of fibers in the materials will affect the mechanical‚ thermal and water absorbent properties. Although‚ many researchers experimented with different types of organic materials‚ there have been a few studies on water hyacinth and its fibers. A fiber based biocomposite material contains polymers reinforced with

Before starting the experiments‚ it is essential to gain a basic concept and knowledge of shape memory polymer and scaffold first‚ and it covers a wide range of textile‚ chemistry and biology technology. After studying these reviews‚ some critical points of shape memory polyurethanes and scaffold would be found out. 2.2 Introduction of Shape memory polyurethanes (SMPUs) Shape memory polymers (SMPs) are stimuli-responsive smart materials which having the ability to change their shape upon by external
