Melt electrospinning writing and its applications
Description
In this thesis, the suitability of Melt Electrospinning Writing technology is demonstrated for two applications: building functional tissue substitutes and engineering relevant models to study disease mechanisms. More specifically, a myocardial patch was built for cardiac tissue engineering, and a prostate microtissue was engineered to study the interactions between epithelium and stroma during prostate cancer progression. This thesis corresponds to the dual Master in Biofabrication, carried out between Universiteit Utrecht and Queensland University of Technology.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
