It is essential to know the detailed information of the implantable materials during their degradation. In this paper, we developed a method to monitor the degradation process of a well-used biomaterial, poly(lactide-co- glycolide) (PLGA) by taking advantage of inverse opal structure. We found that mass loss, molecular weight and glass transition temperature of PLGA during the degradation process in Hank's artificial body fluid can be in situ monitored bv measuring the ootical orooerties of PLGA inverse ooal.展开更多

Their formation process can be divided into several steps: first, the dissolution of the silica spheres induced the crystallization of SFS onto the OPPF; second, some pores emerged on the closely packed bumps when being blown by the SiF4 gas; third, when the crystal was blown by continuous gas from the pores, the span of the top became larger than that of the bottom.展开更多
