Description	LactoSorb copolymer is an absorbable co-polymer synthesized from all-natural ingredients: 82% L-Lactic acid and 18% glycolic acid. Unlike the homopolymers in common use such as 100% poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) or 100% poly-glycolic acid (PGA), LactoSorb copolymer is substantially amorphous (without crystallinity), meaning that its degradation is uniform, precluding the crystalline release associated with degrading homopolymers that have been implicated in late inflammatory reactions. Furthermore, this co-polymer ratio permits the polymer to retain most of its strength for six to eight weeks, which is appropriate for healing, but not so long as to raise concerns about long-term stress shielding of bone. Mass loss, which always follows strength loss for absorbable polymers, occurs in a clinically relevant twelve months (approximately) for LactoSorb copolymer.
