Scientists consider cellulose the world's most abundant natural, renewable, biodegradable polymer. Wegner supervises scientists investigating nanocellulose, a plastic-like fibrous material, derived from wood pulp, which has potential applications in the automobile, aerospace and defense industries. CLASSIFICATION OF BIODEGRADABLE POLYMERS: Biodegradable polymers can be divided into three broad classifications: 1. As the Chairperson of European Federation of Biotechnology, Section on Medicines Development, she has been very active promoting the industrial PhD program (iPhD) in Europe. FPL researchers are going beyond nanocellulose to an even smaller component — cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). These classes may be further subdivided as: 1. Further study is recommended to investigate the speed at which biodegradable polymers decompose outside of industrial composting situations, and their durability in marine and freshwater systems. Scientists at IBN IBN actively pursues research collaboration to address important healthcare problems in the world as we believe that technological breakthroughs will occur when they are built upon shared expertise and strengths between research organizations, clinicians, academia and industry. In this work we introduce (i) sustainable drug/growth factor delivery nanosytems for in situ applications and (ii) reproducible platforms for drug/growth factor release in intestinal tissue engineering based on biodegradable polymer nanofibrous scaffolds fabricated via co-axial electrospinning. In Japan, there has been some growth in biodegradable polymers use as a result of government and industry promoting their use. Their use the environmental problems can be resolved to a certain extent. Most antimicrobial polymers are also non-biodegradable, which limits their in vivo applications as they cannot be naturally eliminated from the body. It is also used as a thickener in many industrial applications. Ethylene-bis-stearamide or EBS is a biodegradable polymer suitable for use in diapers, bandages and agricultural film.
