Adhesion of retinal implant
Abstract
USC researchers have identified polymerized N-isopropyl acrylamide (pNIPAM) as a reversible thermosensitive glue for retinal implants. pNIPAM demonstrates strong in vitro retinal adhesion at body temperature, and in vivo tests in rabbits show that pNIPAM exhibits intraoperative retinal adhesion, successfully preventing...
