Abstract:
Compositions comprising biomedical polymers, and in particular unique blends of poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) are provided. Methods of forming polymer fibers using such compositions and solution blow spinning techniques are also provided, as well as methods of delivering the blow spun polymer fibers onto a surface (e.g., such as tissue for use as a surgical scaffold, sealant or tissue adhesive).
