3D BIOMIMETIC, BI-PHASIC KEY FEATURED SCAFFOLD FOR OSTEOCHONDRAL REPAIR

摘要

This invention is a method for the creation of 3D biologically inspired tissue engineered scaffolds with both excellent interfacial mechanical properties, and biocompatibility. In some cases, a combination of nanomaterials, nano/microfabrication methods and 3D printing can be employed to create structures that promote tissue reconstruction and/or production. In other embodiments, electrospinning techniques can be used to create structures made of polymers and nanotubes.
