Poly Lactic Acid, For Laboratory

PLA is biocompatible and thus suitable for medical use, for instance in absorbable suture threads. PLA based materials have been extensively used as fixation-devices such as screws, pins, washers, darts, and arrows in reconstructive surgeries. PLA is also one of the few plastics that are suitable for 3D printing The traditional role of PGA as a biodegradable suture material has led to its evaluation in other biomedical fields.
