PVA (Polyvinyl alcohol) (Mw 125000, 98-99% hydrolyzed, ~2800 polymerization) is a water-soluble, biodegradable, biocompatible and non-immunogenic polymer. PVA (Mw 125000, 98-99% hydrolyzed, ~2800 polymerization) causes no irritation to rabbit eyes, no skin sensitization in guinea pigs, promotes the proliferation of human skin keratinocytes, and reduces the loss of corneal endothelial cells. The LD50 of PVA (Mw 125000, 98-99% hydrolyzed, ~2800 polymerization) in rats and dogs is greater than 10 g/kg. PVA (Mw 125000, 98-99% hydrolyzed, ~2800 polymerization) is hardly absorbed by the digestive system, causes no adverse effects upon long-term oral administration, and shows no mutagenicity or carcinogenicity. However, repeated intravenous or portal vein injection of PVA (Mw 125000, 98-99% hydrolyzed, ~2800 polymerization) may induce pathological changes such as glomerular lesions, anemia, hypertension or liver fibrosis in rats or dogs. Crosslinked nanofibers prepared by modifying PVA (Mw 125000, 98-99% hydrolyzed, ~2800 polymerization) can be used in studies related to wound dressings and other applications[1][2][3][4].
