From falling off ladders, scaffolds, &c. I I 449 9.
The choice of sterilizing method is material dependent but at least half the prepared tissue scaffolds samples will be gamma irradiated.
Consequently, such scaffolds must provide the reparative cells or their progenitors or the specific attachment or binding sites for endogenous reparative cells or their progenitors or the specific attachment or binding sites for endogenous reparative cells.
This study demonstrates that endowing scaffolds with a sensing element could provide an on-line and non-destructive monitoring method for tissue engineering.
