Tissue Engineering


Tissue engineering combines biological elements like cells and growth factors with engineering concepts and synthetic materials to create a new tissue. Human cells are seeded onto scaffolds, which can be comprised of collagen or a biodegradable polymer, to create substitute tissues. The scaffolds are then cultured in growth factor-rich media, which encourage the cells to divide and expand. The substitute tissue is created as cells expand across the scaffold. This tissue can be implanted into the human body, with the scaffold being absorbed or destroyed over time
