A Facile Synthesis Method of Hydroxyethyl Cellulose-Silver Nanoparticle Scaffolds for Skin Tissue Engineering Applications

Green porous and ecofriendly scaffolds have been considered as one of the potent candidates for tissue engineering substitutes. The objective of this study is to investigate the biocompatibility of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC)/silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), prepared by the green synthesis method as a...
