A biodegradable composite scaffold for cell transplantation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, 2002
AbstractCell transplantation is rapidly becoming a therapeutic option to treat disease and injury. However, standard techniques for cell seeding on non‐woven polymer meshes or within gels may not be suitable for immediate implantation or surgical manipulations of freshly isolated cells. Therefore, a biodegradable composite system was developed as a way
