ABSTRACT:
The invention provides moldable, biodegradable composition for use with bone and other tissues. The composition comprises a poly(caprolactone) thermoplastic polymer processed alone or compounded with a biocompatible, biodegradable substance that controls crystallization of the polymer and functions to soften the composition. The composition may further include a biologically-active agent such as an antibiotic for sustained delivery in an animal, a coloring agent for tinting the composition, and other additives as desired.
