Characteristics and efficacy of fish-derived gelatin microparticles as an embolic agent in a rabbit renal model: regulation of the degradation period by molecular weight

PURPOSE:To evaluate the embolic effect of fish-derived gelatin microparticles (GMPs) and compare the degradation periods and biocompatibilities of different molecular weight (MW) GMPs in a rabbit model.METHODS:GMPs were designed to degrade within 21 days (high MW GMP, 15-30 kDa) and 2 days (low MW G...
