A novel bidirectional continuous perfusion bioreactor for the culture of large sized bone tissue engineered constructs

This works reports the development and preliminary assessment of a new bioreactor for culturing large sized 3D constructs in bone tissue engineering. The Bidirectional Continuous Perfusion Bioreactor (BCPB) promotes mechanical stimulation of cells through the creation of shear forces induced by flow...
