Standardisation In Cell And Tissue Engineering Methods And Protocols

The increased use of biodegradable synthetic or natural scaffolds combined with cells and/or biological molecules, in order to create functional replacement tissue in a damaged tissue site, has led to the need for the development of 'best practice' methods in the area of tissue engineering...
