Remarkable body architecture of marine sponges as biomimetic structure for application in tissue engineering

Recent advances in the study of marine environment, particularly of marine organismsâ architecture and composition, have isolated interesting compounds as proteins, GAG-like polysaccharides and bioactive compounds. These compounds have allowed the development of panoply of biomaterials inspired by m...
