Tissue engineering is essentially a technique for imitating nature. Natural tissues consist of
three components: cells, signalling systems (eg growth factors) and extracellular matrix …

Three-dimensional (3D), highly porous, mechanically competent, bioactive and
biodegradable scaffolds have been fabricated for the first time by the replication technique …

Bone tissue engineering is the technology of healing bone defects in critical clinical
conditions using functional tissue-engineering substitutes. Hydroxyapatite (HAp), as a …

Designing tissue engineering scaffolds with the required mechanical properties and
favourable microstructure to promote cell attachment, growth and new tissue formation is …

Scaffold permeability is a key parameter combining geometrical features such as pore
shape, size and interconnectivity, porosity and specific surface area. It can influence the …

Bone tissue engineering using titanium (Ti) implant and titanium dioxide (TiO 2) with their
modification is gaining increasing attention. Ti has been adopted as an implant material in …

Foam glasses have potential of using in several fields due to their high porosity. Usually, the
foam glasses are prepared though chemical approach where the powdered glass is mixed …

Permeability is a key parameter for microstructural design of scaffolds, since it is related to
their capability for waste removal and nutrients/oxygen supply. In this framework, Darcy's …
