Tissue control rods for sheet-based tissue engineering

摘要: The disclosure provides methods and systems for tissue engineering including an apparatus the growth, maintenance, use of robust sheets using manipulation devices. devices provide a method anchoring to cell culture substrate promote prolonged maturation subsequent increased mechanical strength. also technique facilitate removal sheet from container production steps assemble more complex three dimensional organs sheet. automated handling in assembly processes. composition derived human build engineered blood vessels, heart valves, stents, endarterectomy patches like. these facilitates novel sheet-based approach.
