Collagen scaffolds for tissue engineering [PDF]
AbstractThere are two major approaches to tissue engineering for regeneration of tissues and organs. One involves cell‐free materials and/or factors and one involves delivering cells to contribute to the regeneraion process. Of the many scaffold materials being investigated, collagen type I, with selective removal of its telopeptides, has been shown to

Chitin Scaffolds in Tissue Engineering [PDF]
Tissue engineering/regeneration is based on the hypothesis that healthy stem/progenitor cells either recruited or delivered to an injured site, can eventually regenerate lost or damaged tissue. Most of the researchers working in tissue engineering and regenerative technology attempt to create tissue replacements by culturing cells onto synthetic porous

Flexible PCL tube scaffolds by winding of micro-extruded filaments [PDF]
An important requirement for tissue engineering scaffolds is matching of the functional me-chanical properties to their natural tissue counterpart. Specifically for arteries this comprises the elastic re-sponse of the vessel wall to blood pressure. Human
