Macro/microporous silk fibroin scaffolds with potential for articular cartilage and meniscus tissue engineering applications

This study describes the developmental physicochemical properties of silk fibroin scaffolds derived from high concentration aqueous silk fibroin solutions. The silk fibroin scaffolds were prepared with different initial concentrations (8%, 10%, 12% and 16% (wt%)) and obtained by combining the salt-l...
