Mechanical and Physical Characterization of a Biphasic 3D Printed Silk-Infilled Scaffold for Osteochondral Tissue Engineering

ACS Biomaterials Science & Engineering 2024 Volume 10, Issue 12, Pages 7606–7618

Osteochondral tissue damage is a serious concern, with even minor cartilage damage dramatically increasing an individual’s risk of osteoarthritis. Therefore, there is a need for an early intervention for osteochondral tissue regeneration. 3D printing is an exciting method for developing novel scaffolds, especially for creating biological scaffolds for osteochondral tissue engineering. However, many 3D printing techniques rely on creating a lattice structure, which often demonstrates poor cell bridging between filaments due to its large pore size, reducing regenerative speed and capacity. To tackle this issue, a novel biphasic scaffold was developed by a combination of 3D printed poly(ethylene glycol)-terephthalate-poly(butylene-terephthalate) (PEGT/PBT)…
