Development and characterization of collagen type I and hyaluronic acid (HA) based interlaced scaffolds for tissue engineered heart valves (TEHVS) by Nazir, R

“…While evaluated against the criterion for tissue engineered heart valve (TEHV), S-3 and S-4 among interlaced scaffolds/compositions not only matched mechanically but also showed high degradation resistance which potentially made them as '<b>close-fit</b>' candidates. Findings from this thesis indicated that collagen/HA interlaced scaffolds have the potential to fill in the niche for designing an ideal TEHV. …”
