Characterisation and Design of Tissue Scaffolds

This book provides an expert overview of the fundamental considerations in the characterization of tissue scaffolds necessary for tissue engineering, discussing both preparation and practical considerations that must be addressed by manufacturers.

Characterisation and Design of Tissue Scaffolds offers scientists a useful guide on the characterization of tissue scaffolds, detailing what needs to be measured and why, how such measurements can be made, and addressing industrially important issues. Part one provides readers with information on the fundamental considerations in the characterization of tissue scaffolds, while other sections detail how to prepare tissue scaffolds, discuss techniques in characterization, and present practical considerations for manufacturers.
