## Abstract Applications of composite scaffolds comprising polyethylene oxide (PEO) and chitosan to the culture of bovine knee chondrocytes (BKC) were investigated. Here, PEO and chitosan with various weight ratios were crosslinked, refrigerated at โ80ยฐC, and lyophilized. Pore surfaces of the PEO/c
## Abstract Chitosan has been shown to be a promising scaffold for various applications in tissue engineering. In this study, a chitosanโgelatin complex was fabricated as a scaffold by a freezing and lyophilizing technique. Chitosan's structure and characteristics are similar to those of glycosamin
