Fabrication of strong, bioactive vascular grafts with PCL/collagen and PCL/silica bilayers for small-diameter vascular applications
In vascular surgical applications, small-diameter vascular grafts made from synthetic polymers are rarely commercialized, owing to delayed reendothelialization and subsequent thrombus formation and occlusion. Here, we describe a novel design for a small-diameter poly-ε-caprolactone (PCL) vascular gr...
