Immune Response Testing of Electrospun Polymers: An Important Consideration in the Evaluation of Biomaterials

Due primarily to cell sourcing issues, many in the field of tissue engineering have opted to create scaffolds that promote in situ regeneration, using the body as both the bioreactor and the cell source for the remodeling of scaffolds, resulting in the formation of native tissue. This practice raise...
