objective: biodegradable polycaprolactone/starch composites can be used for bone tissue engineering applications. the effect of the ratio of components on composite properties is of tremendous importance. methods: polycaprolactone/starch composite of 80/20 and 70/30 ratios were fabricated by dissolving them in chloroform followed by evaporation of the solvent. results: the composites were chara...

background: three-dimensional (3d) biomimetic nanofiber scaffolds have widespread applications in biomedical tissue engineering. they provide a suitable environment for cellular adhesion, survival, proliferation and differentiation, guide new tissue formation and development, and are one of the outstanding goals of tissue engineering. electrospinning has recently emerged as a leading technique ...

Background Cleft palate (CP) is a common congenital defect. It makes serious difficulties for cleft-affected children. The gold standard of care is autogenous bone grafting which may cause additional problems in donor site along with disappointing results. Tissue engineering is a promising solution for a widespread range of defects and disorders. It is reasonable to utilize this novel technolo...
