Preparation and characterisation of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) and PLGA/Bioglass® composite tubular foam scaffolds for tissue engineering applications

The PLGA and PLGA/Bioglass® tubular foams developed here are candidate materials for soft-tissue engineering scaffolds, holding promise for the regeneration of tissues requiring a tubular shape scaffold, such as intestine, trachea and blood vessels.
