Standard Guide for Testing and Characterization of Alginate Foam Scaffolds Used in Tissue-Engineered Medical Products (TEMPs)

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This guide is a guideline for the characterizing and testing of alginate foam scaffolds used in tissue-engineered medical products. Alginate foam scaffolds can be used in a number of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications such as anti-adhesion, internal wound healing, and guided tissue regeneration. In addition, alginate foam can be used as a matrix for cell-based cell therapies and for the release of bioactive agents.
