Evaluation of the biological tolerability of the starch-based medical device 4DryField(R) PH in vitro and in vivo a rat model

Conclusion
4DryField® PH is not cytotoxic and does not enhance viability of tumour cell lines. High dose of 4DryField® PH of 1.09 g/kg bodyweight is well tolerated and reduces weight loss in animals with peritoneal injury. The biocompatibility of 4DryField® PH can be rated as being excellent.
