Investigators at INSERM Publish New Data on Tissue Engineering
Published in Blood Weekly, March 3rd, 2011
2011 MAR 3 -- Data detailed in 'Influence of polysaccharide composition on the biocompatibility of pullulan/dextran-based hydrogels' have been presented. According to a study from Paris, France, "The implantation of a biomaterial for tissue engineering requires the presence of a suitable scaffold on which the tissue repair and regeneration will take place. Polymers have been frequently used for that purpose because they show similar properties to that of the natural extracellular matrix."
"Scaffold properties and biocompatibility are modulated by the composition of the polymers used. In this work four polysaccharide-based hydrogels (PSH) made of dextran and...
