A mechanistic model for drug release in PLGA biodegradable stent coatings coupled with polymer degradation and erosion

Biodegradable poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) coating for applications in drug-eluting stents has been receiving increasing interest as a result of its unique properties compared with biodurable polymers in delivering drug for reducing stents-related side effects. In this work, a mathematic...
