Download or read book A Manual For Biomaterials scaffold Fabrication Technology written by Gilson Khang and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007-07-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tissue engineering has been recognized as offering an alternative technique to whole-organ and tissue transplantation for diseased, failed, or malfunctioned organs. To reconstruct a new tissue via tissue engineering, the following triad components are needed: (1) cells which are harvested and dissociated from the donor tissue; (2) biomaterials as scaffold substrates in which cells are attached and cultured, resulting in implantation at the desired site of the functioning tissue; and (3) growth factors which promote and/or prevent cell adhesion, proliferation, migration, and differentiation. Of these three key components, scaffolds play a critical role in tissue engineering. This timely book focuses on the preparation and characterization of scaffold biomaterials for the application of tissue-engineered scaffolds. More importantly, it serves as an experimental guidebook on the standardization of the fabrication process and characterization of scaffolding technology.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In tissue engineering, a highly porous artificial extracellular matrix or scaffold is required to accommodate mammalian cells and guide their growth and tissue regeneration in three dimensions. Successful tissue engineering of soft tissue largely depends on synthetic scaffolds that support the survival, proliferation and differentiation of seeded cells. In this investigation of the use of L-tyrosine based polyurethane in soft tissue engineering, three dimensional and 90% porous biodegradable polyurethane scaffolds with highly interconnected pore structure were fabricated by solvent casting and particulate leaching technique. Scaffolds were fabricated using ground and sieved sodium chloride particles. The grinding and sieving of sodium chloride resulted in particulates of uniform particle sizes but irregular shapes. Biodegradable L-tyrosine polyurethane scaffolds fabricated from these particulates had highly interconnected channels and the pores size that could allow cellular infiltration and nutrient delivery. The scaffolds had anisotropic pore structure with pore diameter ranging from 144-250um in diameter. Studies were conducted to investigate the effect of sodium chloride particulates on scaffold porosity and mean pore diameter. The study showed that scaffolds made using solvent casting and particulate leaching techniques demonstrated independent control of porosity and mean pore diameter of scaffold. Compression testing demonstrated mechanical anisotropy concomitant with the direction of the macro-pores. The porous architecture of these scaffolds reflected the mechanical anisotropy which was congruent with the scanning electron microscopy investigation. The results of this study showed that solvent casting and particulate leached (SPCL) L-tyrosine polyurethane scaffolds have great potential for use as a biodegradable tissue culture support devices. It is believed that, the porous polyurethane scaffold developed in this study will facilitate the construction of an implantable tissue engineered skin."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tissue engineering is a recently developed field that combines material science, cell biology, and engineering to create or improve functional tissues/organs. The field of tissue engineering has progressed from a fledgling science to an emerging technology, in large part due to parallel advances in the application of biomaterials and understanding stem cell behavior. Current studies have evaluated certain types of natural and synthetic biomaterials for feasibility of replicating the physio-chemical microenvironments of stem cells. Furthermore, technologies derived from micro-machining and solid free-form fabrication industries have utilized these biomaterials to create scaffolds that resemble tissue-like structures. Recent scaffold fabrication methods have attempted to overcome certain challenges in engineering tissues and organs. One of the fundamental limitations in current tissue engineering efforts has been the inability to develop multiple tissue types (i.e. bone, cartilage, muscles, ligaments) within a single scaffold structure in a predesigned manner. The differentiation of multiple cells within a three-dimensional (3D) scaffold using a single stem cell population has yet to be developed due to challenges in integrating various biochemical factors in a spatially-patterned method. This dissertation discusses scaffold micro-fabrication techniques that use layerby-layer, ultraviolet-based (UV) stereolithography systems. These approaches in microfabricating scaffolds provide an optimal, biomimetic environment for the pre-patterned differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into skeletal-type tissues. We demonstrated both laser-based and digital micromirror device-based stereolithography systems for creating intricate scaffold architectures with multiple bio-factors encapsulated in predetermined regions. We showed that micro-stereolithography has the powerful capability of building 3D complex scaffolds with specific pore sizes and shapes in a layer-by-layer fashion using photo-crosslinkable monomers. These polymer-based scaffolds were functionalized with specific signaling proteins to create a biomimetic niche in which stem cells can respond, attach, and differentiate. The ultimate goal of this project is to integrate novel concepts of micro-manufacturing along with polymer-controlled release kinetics and stem cell biology to attain pre-designed architectures of tissue structures.
Download or read book Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering written by Claudio Migliaresi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scaffolds for tissue engineering are devices that exploit specific and complex physical and biological functions, in vitro or in vivo, and communicate through biochemical and physical signals with cells and, when implanted, with the body environment. Scaffolds are produced mainly with synthetic materials, and their fabrication technologies are derived from already well-established industrial processes, with some new specific technologies having been developed in the last years to address required complexities. Often, a generalist approach is followed for the translation of materials and technologies designed for other applications, without considering the specific role of scaffolds from a physical and biological point of view. The book illustrates scaffold design principles, with particular relevance to the biological requirements needed to control and drive the biological cross talk, and reviews materials and fabrication and validation methods.

Download or read book Tissue Engineering written by Steven J. Barnes and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tissue engineering is the use of a combination of cells, engineering and materials methods, and suitable biochemical and physio-chemical factors to improve or replace biological functions. While most definitions of tissue engineering cover a broad range of applications, in practice the term is closely associated with applications that repair or replace portions of or whole tissues (i.e., bone, cartilage, blood vessels, bladder, etc.). Often, the tissues involved require certain mechanical and structural properties for proper function. The term has also been applied to efforts to perform specific biochemical functions using cells within an artificially-created support system (e.g. an artificial pancreas, or a bioartificial liver). The term regenerative medicine is often used synonymously with tissue engineering, although those involved in regenerative medicine place more emphasis on the use of stem cells to produce tissues. This book presents recent and important research in the field.

Download or read book Fabrication of Tissue Scaffolds Using Projection Micro stereolithography written by Albert Keisuke Matsushita and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In vitro liver models are a critical tool in pharmaceutical research, yet standard hepatocyte cultures fail to capture the complexity of in vivo tissue behavior. One of the most critical features of the in vivo liver is the extensive microvasculature which allows for the delivery of nutrients and metabolites without exposing hepatocytes to de-differentiating fluidic shear stresses. A new liver tissue scaffold design able to capture this histological organization may therefore improve the functional longevity of seeded hepatocytes. The additive manufacturing technique of projection micro-stereolithography (PuSL) proved capable of building non-cytotoxic and highly complex 3D structures with microvasculature on the order of 20 um inner diameter. While extensive biological testing remains to be carried out, the built structures reveal much promise in PuSL as a method of tissue scaffold fabrication in terms of in vivo mimicking architecture.
