In situ engineering of skeletal tissues using self-assembled biomimetic scaffolds

The overall aim of this thesis was to establish whether selected Leeds' β-structure self- assembling peptides were suitable candidates for use in skeletal tissue engineering. This was addressed by first carrying out simple cytotoxicity studies on selected SAPs using an osteosarcoma cell line in...
