The effect of high outflow permeability in asymmetric poly(DL-lactic acid-co-glycolic acid)conduits for peripheral nerve regeneration - BioMaterials, 27(7), p.1035-1042, 2006 .

This study attempted to accelerate the peripheral nerve regeneration, using the high outflow rate of asymmetric poly(DL-lactic acid-co-glycolic acid)(PLGA)nerve conduits. Asymmetric PLGA nerve conduits of monomer ratio 85/15 were prepared by immersion-precipitation method to serve as possible materials. In this study, mandrels were immersed into a 20
