Biocompatibility of human auricular chondrocytes cultured onto a chitosan/polyvynil alcohol/epichlorohydrin-based hydrogel for tissue engineering application
Int. j. morphol; 32 (4), 2014
Tissue engineering (TE) has become an alternative for auricular reconstruction based on the combination of cells, molecular signals and biomaterials. Scaffolds are biomaterials that provide structural support for cell attachment and subsequent tissue development. Ideally, a scaffold should have character...
