Design of a novel bioreactor for rotator cuff tendon tissue engineering
(2018)Rotator cuff tears are a common cause of pain and disability due to injury and degradation of rotator cuff tendons. More than 250,000 patients require surgery each year, a majority of whom are over the age of 40. The current ... -
Design of an Axial Flow Bioreactor for Tissue Regeneration
(Oklahoma State University, 2012-05-01)Modeling of bioreactors using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tools have been adapted for several bioreactor configurations such as flow-through, parallel-flow, and rotary. In this study, modeling was mainly performed ... -
Design of synthetic scaffolds for tissue regeneration applications
(2010-12)Scope and Method of Study: This study evaluated a novel process of PCL matrix formation, while independently regulating the mechanical, degradation, and biological properties. Its properties were compared with properties ... -
Enhanced alcohol production during syngas fermentation using biochar
(2018-07)Microbial fermentation of syngas (mainly CO, H2 and CO2) into biofuels (ethanol, butanol, etc.) and chemicals (carboxylic acids, 2,3-butanediol, etc.) is a flexible and promising route for producing liquid biofuels and ... -
Ex Vivo Generation of Dendritic Cells Within a Vascular Bioreactor
(2019-05)Dendritic cells (DCs) play a prime role in the activation and control of the immune system and have promising potential in the treatment of cancer, viral infection, autoimmune diseases and transplantation rejection. DCs ... -
Influence of Diffusion in Tissue Engineering Bioreactors
(Oklahoma State University, 2010-12-01)Flow-through reactor configuration has been studied earlier for developing high aspect ratio tissues. However, flow-through configuration is limited by the range of flow rates that can be used. Hence, split channel parallel ... -
Mass transfer in porous tissue engineering scaffolds
(2008-07)Scope and Method of Study: This study evaluated the effects of both local and global scale mass transport phenomena through degradable porous polymer matrices typically used in tissue engineering. Analytical, computational ... -
Multiphase Modeling of Monocyte Migration and Differentiation in a Flow Bioreactor System: An In-Silico Study
(2019-05-01)The objective of this study was to model monocyte migration and differentiation into dendritic cells under a variety of conditions in a novel designed plate bioreactor with flow using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) ...
