Tissue engineering small diameter blood vessels : ployurethane formulation with urethane acrylate in micro-patterned scaffold with mechanical analysis

The desirable properties of polyurethanes (PUR) promote a high candidacy for biocompatible scaffold in vascular grafts. A typical vascular scaffold must be able to adapt to the contractile and relaxation states of blood vessels without too much deformation, hence the need for higher elastic recov...
