Abstract

Biodegradable biopolymers attract much attention in biology and medicine due to its wide application. The present review considers a biodegradable and biocompatible polymer of bacterial origin, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate), which has wide perspectives in medicine and pharmaceutics. It highlights basic properties of biopolymer (biodegradability and biocompatibility) and also biopolymer systems: various materials, devices and compositions based on the biopolymer. Application of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate)-based biopolymer systems in medicine as surgical implants, in bioengineering as cell culture scaffolds, and in pharmacy as novel drug dosage forms and drug systems are also considered.
