Fibrin scaffold use is helpful in repairing injuries to the urinary tract, [3] liver [4] lung, [5] spleen, [6] kidney, [7] and heart. [8] In biomedical research, fibrin scaffolds have been used to fill bone cavities, repair neurons, heart valves, [9] vascular grafts [10] and the surface of the eye.
Micro-mass cultures of C3H-10T1/2 cells at varied oxygen tensions stained with Alcian blue. A commonly applied definition of tissue engineering, as stated by Langer [3] and Vacanti, [4] is "an interdisciplinary field that applies the principles of engineering and life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve [Biological tissue] function or a ...
An example of bioinstructive scaffolds utilized is the Multifunctional alginate scaffolds for T cell engineering and release (MASTER). MASTER is a technique for in situ engineering, replication and release of genetically engineered T cells. It is an evolution of CAR-T cell therapy. T cells are extracted from the patient and mixed with a ...
Nano-scaffolding or nanoscaffolding is a medical process used to regrow tissue and bone, including limbs and organs. The nano-scaffold is a three-dimensional structure composed of polymer fibers very small that are scaled from a Nanometer (10 −9 m) scale. [1]
Biomimetic materials in tissue engineering are materials that have been designed such that they elicit specified cellular responses mediated by interactions with scaffold-tethered peptides from extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins; essentially, the incorporation of cell-binding peptides into biomaterials via chemical or physical modification.

Bioactive ceramics, including bioglasses must be non-toxic, and form a bond with bone. In bone repair applications, i.e. scaffolds for bone regeneration, the solubility of bioceramics is an important parameter, and the slow dissolution rate of most bioceramics relative to bone growth rates remains a challenge in their remedial usage.
This material can be used for biodegradable, homogeneous, dense films that are very useful in the biomedical field. [7] Alginate: Alginate is the most copious marine natural polymer derived from brown seaweed. Alginate biopolymer applications range from packaging, textile and food industry to biomedical and chemical engineering.
These fibers are collected to create a nonwoven fabric or scaffold structure suitable for various biomedical applications. Rotary jet spinning offers advantages such as producing highly porous structures with controllable fiber diameter and alignment, making it promising for tissue engineering and drug delivery applications in biomedicine.
