Material Compatibility of Poly(Ether)urethane <scp>80A</scp> With Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide Sterilization: A Comprehensive Evaluation of Oxidative Stability and Biocompatibility
sterilization, supporting its use as a terminal sterilization method for implantable devices comprised of this material. Furthermore, these data suggest that the biostability of a material is impacted long before any changes in biocompatibility can be resolved.
