| Abstract | Recently, polydioxanone (PDO) and polycaprolactone (PCL) have been applied in applications for tissue engineering owing to their flexibility, as well as biocompatibility and biodegradability, even though their degradation rates are usually either too fast or too slow for many applications. In this study, we synthesized poly(dioxanone-b-caprolactone) co-polymers (PDOCLs) with different DO/CL ratio (0:10-10:0) by ring-opening polymerization. The synthesized co-polymers were characterized by (1)H-NMR, the measurement of inherent viscosity (IV), GPC and DSC. PDOCL scaffolds with different DO/CL ratio were fabricated by a melt-molding particulate-leaching method without using any organic solvents during the scaffold fabrication process. The degradation behavior (in vitro) of the PDOCL scaffolds was evaluated in PBS at 37°C for up to 56 days by the changes in molecular weight, mechanical strength, gross weight and pH. It was observed that the degradation rate of PDOCL scaffolds could be controlled by adjusting the DO/CL ratio of the co-polymers (increasing CL composition leads to slower degradation rate). The PDOCL scaffolds did not lead to a significant drop in pH during the degradation, not even for the PDO-dominant PDOCL scaffolds showing a fast degradation rate, indicating the formation of a small amount of acidic by-products compared to the PLGA scaffolds. From the results, it was expected that the PDOCLs can be a new flexible scaffolding material with different degradation rate for various tissue-engineering applications. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
