Physico-chemical properties of stainless steel 316L coated with ginseng-poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) for stent application

Drug eluting stent is a stent coated with an anti-proliferative drug to prevent in-stent restenosis in blood vessels. Although this stent is superior to the bare stent, another post-stenting complication called late thrombosis, occurs as a result of late re-endotheliazation. Therefore, this project...
