PLA-Collagen Composite Scaffold Fabrication by Vacuum Pressure Impregnation

Abstract

Composite scaffolds are made by various methods, such as copolymerization, freeze gelation, and thermally induced phase separation, which can compound materials with different properties using solvents and heat. However, it is difficult to compound solvents and heat-sensitive materials such as natural polymers. In this study, we investigated a vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI) method for creating a composite of natural polymers. A collagen solution could not be introduced into a poly (l-lactide) (PLA) porous material using an immersing treatment, but it is possible using the VPI method. The resulting PLA-collagen composite scaffold had greater water adsorption and degradation than a PLA scaffold. These results indicate that VPI may be a promising method for creating composites of natural materials. Impact Statement This is the development of a method for introducing cells into a completed porous material in a short time. This technology is expected to be applied to tissue regeneration and 3D culture.
