23 Jul Tissue engineering scaffold material, artificial vessel, cuff member and coating for implants
Abstract
It is intended to provide a scaffold material for tissue engineering uses, an artificial vessel, a cuff member and a coating for implants, which can easily and stably organize the take and culture of cells, and an artificial blood vessel small in diameter and good in rate of patency. The scaffold material for tissue engineering uses is made of a thermoplastic resin and has an open cell porous three-dimensional network structure with an average pore size of 100 to 650 μ m and an apparent density of 0.01 to 0.5 g/cm3. The artificial vessel is made of the scaffold material. The cuff member and the coating for implants are each made of a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting resin and have a part of an open cell porous three-dimensional network structure with an average pore size of 100 to 1000 μ m and an apparent density of 0.01 to 0.5 g/cm3.
