Biocompatibility of Poly (DL-Lactide-co-Glycolide) Microspheres Implanted into the Brain

The delivery of therapeutic molecules to the brain has been limited in part due to the presence of the blood–brain barrier. One potential solution is the implantation of biodegradable polymers with sustained release of drugs. Poly (DL-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLG) is a bioerodible polymer with a long...
