  • Progress toward artificial tissue?

    For modern implants and the growth of artificial tissue and organs, it is important to generate materials with characteristics that closely emulate nature. However, the tissue in our bodies has a ...
  • Production line for artificial skin

    ... trying for a long time to grow artificial tissue. This "artificial skin" would allow them ... IZI. First of all, a biopsy – that is, a sample of human tissue – is checked for sterility. A gripper arm then ...
  • Non-wovens as scaffolds for artificial tissue

    (PhysOrg.com) -- In future, cartilage, tendon and blood vessel tissue will be produced in the laboratory, with cells being grown on a porous frame, such as non-wovens. A new software program helps to ...
  • Non-wovens As Scaffolds For Artificial Tissue

    In future, cartilage, tendon and blood vessel tissue will be produced in the laboratory, with cells being grown on a porous frame, such as non-wovens. A new software program helps to characterize and ...
  • The secrets of the lowly ground beetle could lead to better tissue engineering

    ... over millions of years, may provide engineers and scientists with new ideas for how to build better artificial tissues and organs, and for the design of new medically implantable microdevices.
  • Engineers create bone that blends into tendons

    ... a gradual change from bone to softer tissue rather than the sudden shift of previously developed artificial tissue, providing better integration with the body and allowing them to handle weight more ...

  • Surface tension drives segregation within cell mixtures

    ... of cancer. Understanding these interactions is particularly important in current efforts to create artificial tissues. "In order to design and control the building of artificial tissues of any sort, ...
  • A new way to assemble cells into 3-D microtissues

    ... -signaling system, analogous to natural cell systems that communicate via growth factors. Artificial tissues are presently used in medicine for a range of applications such as skin grafts, bone marrow ...
  • Healing With Light? Optical Technology Controls Living Cells

    ... fiction after all. A new optical technology that lines up living cells and controls their movements has opened the door to better artificial tissues and wounds that heal faster with less scarring.
