Transport characteristics using nor-dihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA)-polymerized collagen fibers as a local drug delivery system

Dexamethasone and dexamethasone 21-phosphate were loaded into NDGA-polymerized collagen fibers and release rate studies were performed to calculate their diffusion coefficients. Dexamethasone loaded fibers were placed in a PBS solution for specified time intervals (1, 3, 6, 7, 12, 24, 30, and 48 hou...
