Exploiting Sequence To Control the Hydrolysis Behavior of Biodegradable PLGA Copolymers
Abstract
Monomer sequence is a potentially powerful but underutilized tool for the control of copolymer properties. Sequence is demonstrated to dramatically affect the hydrolysis profile for the degradation of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA), a member of the most widely used class of biodegradable polymers employed in biomedical applications. The nearly linear molecular weight loss profile and uniform thermal behavior throughout the course of the hydrolysis differ dramatically from the behavior that is exhibited by random copolymer controls with the same comonomer ratio.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
