文摘In the research,a β-hydroxybutyrate and β-hydroxyvalerate copolymer(PHBV)/polylactic acid(PLA)artificial blood vessel was designed and developed,and it was also implanted in vivo for a period of time to observe its biocompatibility and degradation performance.The results showed that the developed PHBV/PLA artificial blood vessel could be used to replace the natural blood vessel,but its degradation rate was too fast and the mechanical supporting force was insufficient.Thus,properties of the PHBV/PLA need to be further improved.
