Tissue ingrowth markedly reduces mechanical anisotropy and stiffness in fibre direction of highly aligned electrospun polyurethane scaffolds

This study examines how tissue ingrowth affects the mechanical properties of electrospun polyurethane scaffolds, finding reduced stiffness in the fiber direction and increased stiffness transversely.

Electrospun polyester-urethane scaffold preserves mechanical properties and exhibits strain stiffening during in situ tissue ingrowth and degradation

This study compares biostable and degradable electrospun polyester-urethane scaffolds, showing that the degradable scaffold maintains consistent mechanical properties after 14 days of in vivo implantation.
