Macro and microstructural characteristics of north Atlantic deep-sea sponges as bioinspired models for tissue engineering scaffolding

Sponges occur ubiquitously in the marine realm and in some deep-sea areas they dominate the benthic communities forming complex biogenic habitats â sponge grounds, aggregations, gardens and reefs. However, deep-sea sponges and spongegrounds are still poorly investigated with regards to biotechnologi...
