Physical properties and biocompatibility of 3D hybrid PLGA based scaffolds

Biomaterial scaffolds play an important role in cartilage tissue engineering. They act as a temporary extracellular matrix substitute and template for cellular growth in vitro and support mechanical integrity in vivo. Several limitations have been reported when natural and synthetic biomaterials wer...
