Bletilla striata polysaccharide cryogel scaffold for spatial control of foreign-body reaction

Abstract Background Implantation of a biomaterial may induce the foreign-body reaction to the host tissue that determines the outcome of the integration and the biological performance of the implants. The foreign-body reaction can be modulated by control of the material properties of the implants. M...
