Antibacterial Agent-Loaded, Novel In Situ Forming Implants Made with Poly(Isosorbide Sebacate) and Dimethyl Isosorbide as a Solvent for Periodontitis Treatment.

ABSTRACT: Isosorbide-based aliphatic polyesters are a promising class of biodegradable polymers for biomedical applications, representing an attractive alternative to poly(α-hydroxy acids). Derived from the bio-based bicyclic diol, they combine structural rigidity, tunable hydrophilicity, and enhanced biocompatibility, making them suitable for drug delivery and sustainable medical devices. In this study, we developed novel in situ forming implant (ISFI) formulations composed of poly(isosorbide sebacate) (PISEB) and dimethyl isosorbide (DMI), and evaluated their applicability for local delivery of doxycycline hyclate (DOXY), minocycline hydrochloride (MIN), and/or eugenol (EUG). Basic characteristics of new ISFI formulations were investigated. Rheological analysis demonstrated that the liquid formula
