About this ebook

What Is Tissue Engineering

Tissue engineering is a subfield of biomedical engineering that focuses on repairing, maintaining, enhancing, or replacing various kinds of biological tissues through the utilization of a variety of techniques, including cells, engineering, and material science, as well as appropriate biochemical and physicochemical factors. Tissue engineering is not limited to applications that involve cells and tissue scaffolds; rather, it typically involves placing cells on tissue scaffolds in order to form new viable tissue for a medical purpose. However, tissue engineering is not limited to applications involving cells and tissue scaffolds. As a result of its expanding breadth and significance, it is now possible to consider it to be an independent field, despite the fact that it was originally classified as a sub-field of biomaterials.
