Cell Scaffolds with Three-Dimensional Order: The Role of Modelling in Establishing Design Guidelines
Keyword(s):
The architectural uniformity of highly ordered cell scaffolds with inverted colloidal crystal geometry is exploited by modelling the movement of cells and nutrients in the scaffold using Brownian dynamics simulations. The extent of cell–scaffold interaction and the diffusion of the cells in the scaffold are explicitly examined. A procedure to identify a suitable region in the available design space is suggested and evaluated against earlier experimental observations.
