Researchers from Nanyang Technological University report on findings in tissue engineering

Published in Biotech Business Week, July 13th, 2009

According to a study from Singapore, Singapore, "Electrospun scaffolds have been increasingly used in tissue engineering applications due to their size-scale similarities with native extracellular matrices. Their inherent fibrous features may be important in promoting cell attachment and proliferation on the scaffolds."

"In this study, we explore the technique of fabricating electrospun fibers with nano-sized porous Surfaces and investigate their effects on the attachment of porcine esophageal epithelial cells (PEECs). Porosity was introduced in electroSpun poly(D,L-lactide) fibers by creating vapor-induced phase separation conditions during electrospinning. The...
