Biocompatible Reinforcement of Cellularized Tissues Using Small Molecule Crosslinkers
Existing chemical crosslinking methods such as UV-based, genipin or enzymatic are often cytotoxic and incompatible with the presence of living cells, or result in inhomogeneous reinforcement (primarily surface over core). Moreover, reinforcing ECM whilst ensuring uniform cell viability and spatial distribution in thick tissues remains challenging, particularly when robust mechanical properties are needed post-fabrication.

Eco-Friendly, Lignin-free Cellulose Scaffolds from Green Macroalgae for Biomedical Applications
Unmet Need • Sustainability: there is a need for materials supply that is both biocompatible and eco-friendly • Engineering constraints: many available cellulose scaffolds lack tunable structural features (e.g., pore size, fiber orientation) that closely mimic native extracellular matrices (ECM) for specific tissue engineering uses • Cost: bacterial cellulose (used for wound dressings and tissue […] Read More >
