3D Printing and Electrospinning of PLLA- <i>co</i> -CL/PDLA Blends as Potential Materials for Cardiovascular Implants
-CL/PDLA blends─particularly 3D-printed films at a 90:10 ratio─provide hydrophilic, cyto-compatible surfaces that support endothelial viability and balanced vasoactive signaling. These findings highlight their potential as biodegradable cardiovascular implant coverings.
