Nutrient transport in bioreactors for bone tissue growth : why do hollow fiber membrane bioreactors work

One of the main aims of bone tissue engineering is to produce three-dimensional soft bone tissue constructs of acceptable clinical size and shape in bioreactors. The tissue constructs have been proposed as possible replacements for diseased or dysfunctional bones in the human body through surgical t...
