## Abstract Porous scaffolds composed of collagen or collagen and elastin were prepared by freeze drying at temperatures between –18 and –196°C. All scaffolds had a porosity of 90–98% and a homogeneous distribution of pores. Freeze drying at –18°C afforded collagen and collagen/elastin matrices wit

## Abstract Small‐diameter blood vessel substitutes are urgently needed for patients requiring replacements of their coronary and below‐the‐knee vessels and for better arteriovenous dialysis shunts. Circulatory diseases, especially those arising from atherosclerosis, are the predominant cause of mo
