The study aims to assess the structural and functional properties of in vitro three-dimensional (3D) PLGA-based hybrid scaffolds seeded with chondrocytes, particularly in terms of the production of specific cartilaginous extracellular matrix (ECM). The PLGA scaffolds were incorporated with atelocollagen and/or fresh fibrin and assigned to four grou

The tort system’s emphasis on fault, personal blame and individual responsibility has not been successful in functioning as a mechanism that is able to enhance patient safety as a whole, as it triggers negative

Electrical cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) is a powerful technique to monitor real-time cell behavior. In this study, an ECIS biosensor formed using two interdigitated electrode structures (IDEs) was used to monitor cell behavior and its response to toxicants. Three different sensors with varied electrode spacing were first modeled using CO
