Abstract excerpt
This study investigated the effect of temporary encapsulation of rat marrow stromal osteoblasts in crosslinked gelatin microparticles on long-term cell proliferation and phenotypic expression for microparticles placed on crosslinking poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF) composites using N-vinyl pyrollidinone (N-VP) as a crosslinking agent over a 28 day time period. Encapsulated cells (ECs) were seeded on actively...
