Microsphere-Based Scaffolds Carrying Opposing Gradients of Chondroitin Sulfate and Tricalcium Phosphate
Extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as chondroitin sulfate (CS) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) serve as raw materials and thus spatial patterning of these raw materials may be leveraged to mimic the smooth transition of physical, chemical and mechanical properties at the bone-cartilage interf...
