제목 | Wettability Improvement and Sterilization of Polymeric Scaffold by Plasma Treatment |
초록 | Polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering must be either manufactured aspectically or sterilized after processing. For sterilization processing, the general requirement of polymeric scaffolds are non-toxicity, tissue compatibility, and preservation of its properities. The goal of study was to determine the optimal sterilization technique without causing damage slightly to successful tissue engineering. The plasma sterilizaion method was compared to three well-established technique ; 70 % ethanol, ethylene oxide, and γ-irradiation. We evaluated molecular weight and change of pore structure by various sterilization methods. the former was evaluated by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and the laster by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. We observed increasing wettability of plasma treated scaffold according to 0.01 w/v % brilliant blue dye dropping method and water absorption. Our results show that plasma treatment is the most suitable method for sterilizing polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering applications.
