摘要:
A composition comprising a biodegradable polymeric material and therapeutic agent associated with the polymeric material that advantageously can provide controlled release of the therapeutic agent, while comprising little to no auxiliary materials. In some embodiments, the composition is formed by the reaction of one or more monomers in the presence of a food grade catalyst. In another embodiment, the composition comprises a polymeric material capable of undergoing thermal reconfiguration (i.e. a dynamic network). Advantageously, the compositions and materials described herein may comprise a reconfigurable polymeric material (e.g., a thermoset polymeric material) having the strength and integrity of epoxy resins, the biomedical applicability of hydrogels, and/or the moldability of vitrimers.
