Swelling capacity and degradation behaviour are important factors for biomaterial scaffold in tissue engineering (TE). Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) is a synthetic polymer used commonly as scaffolding material. Major concern with PLGA use is the trigger of inflammatory reaction damaging cells in vivo. Incorporation of natural polymers i.e. a

Purpose: To evaluate the in vitro formation of 3D tissue engineered constructs (TECs) using rabbits’ annulus fibrosus (AF) cells seeded on poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) based scaffolds. Methods: Porous disc-shaped PLGA was fabricated using solvent casting and salt leaching technique. It was crosslinked with atelocollagen to form “PA”sc
