Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
A standard reference in the library of leading research efforts and university programs dedicated to scaffolding design and regenerative medicine, Scaffolding in Tissue Engineering reviews the general principles of tissue engineering and examines methods and applications for an ever-expanding catalog of tissue engineering scaffolds. It presents an in-depth exploration of traditional and novel materials and fabrication technologies, including three-dimensional scaffold design, structural and functional scaffold modification, and explores various tissue engineering trends and applications, both current and projected.
MoreLong description:
The growing interest in scaffolding design and increasing research programs dedicated to regenerative medicine corroborate the need for Scaffolding in Tissue Engineering. While certain books and journal articles address various aspects in the field, this is the first current, comprehensive text focusing on scaffolding for tissue engineering.
Scaffolding in Tissue Engineering reviews the general principles of tissue engineering and concentrates on the principles, methods, and applications for a broad range of tissue engineering scaffolds. The first section presents an in-depth exploration of traditional and novel materials, including alginates, polysaccharides, and fibrillar fibrin gels. The following section covers fabrication technologies, discussing three-dimensional scaffold design, laboratory-scale manufacture of a cell carrier, phase separation, self-assembly, gas foaming, solid freeform fabrication, injectable systems, and immunoisolation techniques. Subsequent chapters examine structural and functional scaffold modification, composite scaffolds, bioactive hydrogels, gene delivery, growth factors, and degradation of biodegradable polymers. The final section explores various tissue engineering applications, comprising chapters on blood cell substitutes, and tissue engineering of nerves, the tendons, ligaments, cornea, cartilage and myocardium, meniscal tissue.
While providing a comprehensive summary of current knowledge and technologies, Scaffolding in Tissue Engineering gives readers insight into new trends and directions for scaffold development and for an ever-expanding range of tissue engineering applications.
"The editors certainly succeeded in their purpose to produce a robust and outstanding book?Scaffolding in Tissue Engineering brought together an extraordinary amount of information related to the use of scaffolds in TE. It is unquestionably destined to be a classic book that deserves a place on the shelves of every researcher in TE and libraries. Congratulations to the editors and to all contributors for this exceptional book."
-Eduardo Abreu, Biomedical Engineering Online, October 2006
