Tissue engineering By Nathan. F Introduction Tissue Engineering is the use of a combination of cells‚ engineering and materials methods‚ and suitable biochemical and physio-chemical factors to improve or replace biochemical functions. The objective of tissue engineering is to create living body parts that will fully integrate with the recipient’s body. Tissue engineering mostly associated with applications that repair or replace portions of or whole tissues. For example bone‚ cartilage
