Cell culture is an important tool for biological research. Two-dimensional cell culture has
been used for some time now, but growing cells in flat layers on plastic surfaces does not …

The success of bone substitutes used to repair bone defects such as critical sized defects
depends on the architecture of the porous biomaterial. The architectural parameters and …

Cell culture in two dimensions has been routinely and diligently undertaken in thousands of
laboratories worldwide for the past four decades. However, the culture of cells in two …

To accurately mimic the native tissue environment, tissue engineered scaffolds often need to
have a highly controlled and varied display of three-dimensional (3D) architecture and …

Scaffolds produced by rapid prototyping (RP) techniques have proved their value for tissue
engineering applications, due to their ability to produce predetermined forms and structures …

Ex vivo engineering of living tissues is a rapidly developing area with the potential to impact
significantly on a wide-range of biomedical applications. Major obstacles to the generation …

The advance of rapid prototyping techniques has significantly improved control over the
pore network architecture of tissue engineering scaffolds. In this work, we have assessed the …

Nonwoven fiber mats of poly (ɛ-caprolactone)(PCL) and PCL blended with poly (ethylene
oxide)(PEO) were generated by electrospinning. Differential scanning calorimetry, scanning …

Long-term function of three-dimensional (3D) tissue constructs depends on adequate
vascularization after implantation. Accordingly, research in tissue engineering has focused …

A piezoelectric actuated, drop-on-demand inkjet printing system has been used to deliver
