Electrical Stimulation Optimization in Bioreactors for Tissue Engineering Applications

Article Preview

Abstract:

We review here the current research status on bioreactors for tissue engineering with cell electrical stimulation. Depending on the cell types, electrical stimulation has distinct objectives, in particular being employed both to mimic and enhance the endogenous electricity measured in the natural regeneration of living organisms as well as to mimic strain working conditions for contractible tissues (for instance muscle and cardiac tissues). Understanding the distinct parameters involved in electrical stimulation is crucial to optimize its application. The results presented in the literature and reviewed here reveal that the application of electrical stimulation can be essential for tissue engineering applications.
