| Abstract | PHB porous substrates were prepared based on the mono-membrane fabricated by emulsion templates method. The key factors of the method affecting the pore size and porosity of the PHB porous substrates were studied. The surface of PHB porous substrates were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM), which showed the even pore size and regular arranged pore. The transect of the PHB porous substrates prepared using the templates method was good. Moreover, the effects of variation of surfactant content (P%) and water content (R) on the pore size and porosity of PHB films were discussed. Preliminary studies showed that when P% is less than 20%, the pore size made by emulsion templates ranged from 5 μm to 30 μm with the value of P increasing. As P% is up to 20%. It was interesting to see that the porous substrates had muti-pore size distribution, i.e., median pore sizes were about 5 μm and inside the wall of pore, there existed numerous micro-pores size can be controlled from 100 nm to 500 nm only by adjusting the parameter R of the microemulsion. The cell-compatibility was evaluated via Chinese Hamster Lung (CHL) fibroblast cultivation in vitro. The Cells were cultured on both the mono-pore size membrane prepared by emulsion templates and the multi-pore size membrane prepared by microemulsion templates. It can be seen that the cells cultured on multi-pore size membrane stretched their morphology and proliferated better than that of mono-pore size membrane. These results indicated that the multi-pore size membrane had better cell-compatibility and was more suitable for tissue engineering. The degradation experiment indicated that the degradation of PHB porous substrates were accelerated by enzyme in vitro and the porous configuration was favorable to its degradation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
