In Vitro and in Vivo Performance of Porcine Islets Encapsulated in Interfacially Photopolymerized Poly(Ethylene Glycol) Diacrylate Membranes

The usefulness of interfacial photopolymerization of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) diacrylate at a variety of concentrations and molecular weights to form hydrogel membranes for encapsulating porcine islets of Langerhans was investigated. The results from this study show in vitro and in vivo function...
