Seeding cells into needled felt scaffolds for tissue engineering applications SUMMARY: Tissue engineering methods are under development that will enable the repair or replacement of a variety of tissues‚ including articular cartilage and bone. To engineer functional tissue it is necessary that scaffolds initially be seeded with a large number of cells distributed evenly throughout the scaffold structure. It previously has been shown that‚ compared to static seeding conditions‚ seeding scaffolds

1. INTRODUCTION A solar cell is a device that converts the energy of sunlight directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect. Sometimes the term solar cell is reserved for devices intended specifically to capture energy from sunlight‚ while the term photovoltaic cell is used when the light source is unspecified.”Photovoltaics” the field of technology and research related to the application of solar cells in producing electricity for practical use.

Background Information: Cell Transport When molecules move from a high to low concentration it is called moving DOWN the concentration gradient. When molecules move from a low to high concentration it is called moving AGAINST the concentration gradient. When the concentration of a solute is the same throughout a system‚ the system is at EQUILIBRIUM. What kind of transport DOES NOT require energy? PASSIVE What kind of transport requires energy? ACTIVE Which CELL PART provides the energy for

STEM CELL RESEARCH AND THERAPYAND ITS IMPACTS ON SOCIETY Abstract There are several types of stem cells being used in stem cell research and therapy today. They are embryonic‚ adult and induced pluripotent stem cells. Each will be discussed further. This topic has stirred much moral‚ ethical and political debate as whether cells from fetuses should be used in this research. This impacts governmental policies on laws and funding. Another issue that must be analyzed is the

Syllabus topic: Cell structure Aim: To observe and draw transverse sections of parenchyma‚ collenchyma‚ sclerenchyma‚ xylem‚ phloem and epidermal cells using a light microscope. Apparatus and Materials: Light microscope; microscopic slide of dicotyledonous stem Method: 1. The light microscope was plugged into a power source‚ and switched on. 2. The coarse focus of the light microscope was adjusted with both hands to move the stage downwards. 3. The slide with the dicotyledonous stem

History of Cell Theory As we all probably know today‚ every single living being is made up by cells the building blocks of life. As much as we would like to take this fact for granted‚ we cannot help but acknowledge and remember the works and discoveries of earlier scientists which all contributed to our today’s understanding of the cell theory. The cell theory being; all living things are composed of one or more cells‚ cells are organisms’ basic units of structure and function‚ and cells only come
