Endoprosthesis having a fiber meshwork disposed thereon

TL;DR: In this article, a medical device having an underlying structure on which is disposed a fiber meshwork composed of one or more fibers of substantially uniform diameter is presented, which is permeable to body fluids and thereby permits body fluids to contact the underlying structure to facilitate its controlled disintegration.

Evaluating cell proliferation based on internal pore size and 3D scaffold architecture fabricated using solid freeform fabrication technology

TL;DR: This report proposes suitable scaffolds for bone tissue regeneration considering the internal pore size and scaffold architecture and shows that cell proliferation on the MSTL scaffold was clearly superior and indicated that M STL would be a good replacement for current conventional methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential of an electrospun composite scaffold of poly (3-hydroxybutyrate)-chitosan/alumina nanowires in bone tissue engineering applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, Alumina nanowires are added to (Polyhydroxybutyrate-Chitosan) PHB-CTS alloy solution, and the scaffolds are prepared by electrospinning method.

A survey of fabrication and application of metallic foams (1925–2017)

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of metal foams, their fabrication techniques and commercial applications are discussed along with their characteristic process parameters, and the focus of the review finally shifts to open cell metallic foams for biomedical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanofibrous composites for tissue engineering applications.

TL;DR: This review is intended as a bridge between material scientists and biomedical researchers to give basic background information on tissue biology to the former, and on material processing approaches to the latter, in a general manner, and specifically review fibrous nanocomposite materials that have previously been used for cell studies.
