Preparation of porous collagen scaffolds with micropatterned structures.
Porous collagen scaffolds with micropatterned structures are manufactured using preformed ice micropattern templates. The scaffolds show precisely controlled pore structures and micropattern structures of bioactive substances, which can be tethered by designing a program.
