TL;DR: In this paper, cross-linked collagen and a glycosaminoglycan were used as tissue engineering matrices or scaffolds following terminal sterilization, and methods for producing these compositions and terminally sterilized matrices from these compositions as well as methods of using these matrices and scaffolds as tissue-engineering devices.
Abstract: Compositions of cross-linked collagen and a glycosaminoglycan are provided which retain characteristics rendering them useful as tissue engineering matrices or scaffolds following terminal sterilization. Also provided are methods for producing these compositions and terminally sterilized matrices or scaffolds from these compositions as well as methods of using these matrices or scaffolds as tissue engineering devices.
