Conductive biomaterials for tissue engineering applications
E-mail:,
Conductive biomaterials with a suitable biocompatibility have been utilized to fabricate in vitro platforms for differentiation of progenitor cell population as well as implantable tissue engineering scaffolds. This review evaluates biocompatibility of various conductive biomaterials and relevant fabrication techniques including coating, incorporation into composites, and functionalization with biological moieties. In addition, recent developments in tissue engineering applications using various conductive biomaterials are discussed in detail. Therefore, this overview could provide fundamental knowledge for engineering strategies in regulation of stem cell differentiation, maintenance of phenotypic characteristics, and design of functional implantable scaffolds for better regenerative medicines.
