Three-dimensional fibroin/collagen scaffolds derived from aqueous solution and the use for HepG2 culture

Although three-dimensional fibroin scaffolds have been prepared with freeze–drying method, these scaffolds still cannot meet the requirements of tissue engineering. In this article, a new process is described to form fibroin-based porous scaffolds with controllable structure and morphological features. When collagen was added to fibroin solution, the viscosity of the blend solution increased because of the interaction between fibroin and...
