Experimental method to characterize the strain dependent permeability of tissue engineering scaffolds.
Permeability is an overarching mechanical parameter encompassing the effects of porosity, pore size, and interconnectivity of porous structures. This parameter directly influences transport of soluble particles and indirectly regulates fluid pressure and velocity in tissue engineering scaffolds. The permeability also contributes to the viscoelastic behavior of visco-porous material under loadin...
متن کاملhepatic tissue engineering using scaffolds: state of the art
severe hepatic failure accounts for many deaths and raises medical costs each year worldwide. currently, liver transplantation is the most common therapeutic option for patients with end-stage chronic liver disease. due to decrease in the number of organ donors, many in need of transplantation continue to remain on the waiting list. hepatic tissue engineering is a step toward alleviating the ne...
متن کاملAligned and random nanofibrous nanocomposite scaffolds for bone tissue engineering
Aligned and random nanocomposite nanofibrous scaffolds were electrospun from polycaprolactone (PCL), poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and hydroxyapatite nanoparticles (nHA). The morphology and mechanical characteristics of the nanofibers were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy and tensile testing, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy revealed fibers with an average diameter of 123 ± 3...
متن کاملTissue Engineering Scaffolds: History, Types and Construction Methods
Tissue engineering is a rapidly growing research field, potentially capable of de novo tissue and organ construction. This approach is used to improve efficiency both in the tissue and cell culture. This method is required to provide bodies in vivo three-dimensional conditions outside of the body (ex vivo). To achieve this goal, given tissue cells are cultured on the tissue engineering scaffold...
متن کاملMaking tissue engineering scaffolds work. Review: the application of solid freeform fabrication technology to the production of tissue engineering scaffolds.
Tissue engineering is a new and exciting technique which has the potential to create tissues and organs de novo. It involves the in vitro seeding and attachment of human cells onto a scaffold. These cells then proliferate, migrate and differentiate into the specific tissue while secreting the extracellular matrix components required to create the tissue. It is evident, therefore, that the choic...
