Craniofacial reconstruction requires robust bone of specified geometry for the repair to be
both functional and aesthetic. While native bone from elsewhere in the body can be …

Hollow fiber bioreactors are the focus of scientific research aiming to mimic physiological
vascular networks and engineer organs and tissues in vitro. The reason for this lies in the …

Recent experimental studies suggest that hollow fibre membrane bioreactors (HFMBs) may
be used to grow three-dimensional (3D) bone tissue, which may then be implanted into …

This book is the first to deliver an extensive exploration of nanocomposite membrane
technology. Approaching the subject from the materials point of view, the text offers an …

Tissue engineering is a promising approach for bone regeneration. In this study, we aimed
to investigate whether tissue engineered periosteum (TEP), which was fabricated by …

Polymeric hollow fiber (HF) membranes are commercially available, ie microfiltration and
ultrafiltration cartridges or reverse osmosis and gas separation modules, to be applied for …

In order to increase process efficiency, many pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies
have introduced disposable bag technology over the last 10 years. Because this technology …

The development of tissue engineering hollow fiber bioreactors (HFB) requires the optimal
