Researchers from Aalto University and the University of Bayreuth have developed self-healing gel technology similar to human ...

This new material also proved it was just as resistant to wear and tear as the real thing when rubbed against natural ...

Cartilage neither heals nor regenerates after damage, so artificial cartilage could help many people with joints damaged by wear, injury or disease. Lab-grown cartilage grown with tension (top ...

To accomplish this, the researchers first extract a small sample of cartilage from the patient’s nose and those cells are subsequently multiplied in a lab and then placed on a soft fiber scaffold ...

For example, artificial joints constructed from biomaterials ... illustrated by several approaches to articular cartilage repair. Cell-based tissue engineering is one of the most promising ...
