Permeability Evaluation of Flow Behaviors Within Perfusion Bioreactors

Tissue engineering aims to produce artificial tissue in order to create or repair damaged tissue. It is evident that scaffolds are of extreme importance, because they will be the support structure of the new tissue. This new tissue is cultivated in vitro in a bioreactor in which is placed the scaffold. In order to control the cell culture process inside of a bioreactor, it is essential to know the fluid flow in...
