TL;DR: While most cells were found to be viable upon initial device fabrication, only those cells near the microfluidic channels remained viable after 3 days, demonstrating the importance of a perfused network of microchannels for delivering nutrients and oxygen to maintain cell viability in large hydrogels.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomaterials for articular cartilage tissue engineering: Learning from biology.
TL;DR: This review highlights the available therapies for cartilage repair and retraces the research on different biomaterials developed for tissue engineering strategies, and a perspective of the limitations of the current research is given in the light of the emerging technologies supporting tissue engineering of articular cartilage.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro degradation of thin poly(DL-lactic-co-glycolic acid) films.
TL;DR: These studies suggest that the degradation rate of thin films can be engineered by varying film thicknesses, and demonstrated that thick films degrade faster than corresponding thin films with the same composition.
