Development and Survival of Human Ovarian Cells in Chitosan Hydrogel Micro-Bioreactor

Abstract excerpt

Background and Objectives: To test the long-term ability of human ovarian cortex cells to develop in unconventional culture conditions. Materials and Methods. Ovarian cortex cells from fetuses aged 23 to 39 weeks gestation were cultured for 90 days in hollow chitosan hydrogel micro-bioreactors and concurrently in traditional wells.
