Abstract:
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were isolated from the bone marrow of rabbits and inoculated respectively on 3D scaffolds of poly(3-Hydroxybutyrate-co-3-Hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV), poly(butylenes succinate) (PBS) and different blends (100/0, 80/20, 50/50, 20/80, 0/100) (Wt%) in vitro. It was found that the (50/50) blends possessed the best performance on adhesion and cytotoxicity of MSCs. The scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) results showed that the (50/50) blends had the appropriate roughness for MSCs to attach and grow, which may be used as a suitable biomaterial to create small caliber vascular grafts.
