(±)-Poly(lactic acid)

Description:

(±)-Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a biodegradable and bioactive thermoplastic made from lactic acid monomers. It is characterized by its ability to decompose into non-toxic byproducts, making it an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional petroleum-based plastics. PLA exhibits good mechanical properties, including tensile strength and flexibility, which can vary depending on its molecular weight and the ratio of its stereoisomers (D- and L-lactic acid). It has a glass transition temperature that allows it to be processed using standard thermoplastic techniques such as injection molding and extrusion. PLA is also known for its transparency and gloss, making it suitable for various applications, including packaging, textiles, and biomedical devices. Additionally, it has a relatively low melting temperature, which can limit its use in high-temperature applications. Its biodegradability is influenced by environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, and it typically breaks down into lactic acid in composting environments. Overall, (±)-Poly(lactic acid) represents a significant advancement in sustainable materials science.

Polylactic acid is a polymer that has been used as a suture and in tissue engineering. It is synthesized by the polymerization of lactic acid, which is derived from renewable resources such as cornstarch, potatoes, and sugar beets. Polylactic acid has been shown to be effective against squamous carcinoma cells and colorectal adenocarcinoma cells. The mechanism of action for polylactic acid is not fully understood but it may have an effect on mitochondrial membrane potential, blood sampling, multivariate logistic regression, antibacterial efficacy, enzyme activities and transcriptional regulation. This polymer may also inhibit the growth of bacteria through the inhibition of glycol ethers or benzalkonium chloride.
