Development of Bioactive Patch for Maintenance of Implanted Cells at the Myocardial Infarcted Site

Table 1

Structural and mechanical parameters of the elastomeric membrane. Morphological parameters (porosity, , equilibrium water content in PBS, EWC, water contact angle and Young modulus, ) of PEA scaffolds with cylindrical orthogonal pores and PCLMA scaffolds with spherical pores. Young modulus between brackets corresponds to the bulk PEA and PCLMA polymers.

PEA	76.4 ± 6.1	1.14 ± 0.16	115 ± 0.95	0.04 ± 0.02 (0.84 ± 0.08)
PCLMA	89.0 ± 1.0	10.00 ± 0.73	123.46 ± 1.50	0.40 ± 0.08 (0.73 ± 0.07)
