Bone disease and trauma can sometimes create defects that require more than current clinical therapies can provide for effective healing. Scaffolds that release bioactive agents such as drugs offer additional benefits in this regard in comparison to those whose main requirements are space filling an
This manuscript presents hydrogels (HGs) from a tissue engineering perspective being especially written for those who are approaching this field by offering a concise but inclusive review of hydrogel synthesis, properties, characterization methods, and applications.
## Abstract We developed a two fluid atomizer to spray mammalian cells suspended in phosphate buffered saline (PBS)βPluronic Fβ127 polymer solutions. We used the device to spray suspensions of bovine articular chondrocytes and porcine tracheal epithelial cells, in either PBS or the polymer solution
## Abstract Plateletβrich plasma (PRP) represents an autologous source of growth factors essential for bone regeneration. The clinical efficacy of PRP is, however, unpredictable, and this is likely due to the inefficient and inconsistent delivery of PRPβderived growth factors. Previous investigatio
