3D Structure and Mechanics of Silk Sponge Scaffolds Is Governed by Larger Pore Sizes

Three-dimensional scaffolds play an essential role in tissue engineering. Although essential, the tunability of the 3D scaffolds mechanical and transport properties remains a challenge. In this work, we present new approaches to advance the field. First, we applied our progressive pH acidification t...
