Project
Construction of a bio-active meniscus via bio-plotting.
Bioplotting is a innovative technique enabling the construction of a scaffold composed of materials with different characteristics. Moreover, different cell types can be encapsulated during the plotting process. The aim of this project is the construction of a bio-active meniscus, composed of a gelatinous core with embedded fibrochondrocytes and an outer more porous layer with fibroblasts.
