Mimicked scaffolds based on coated silk woven fabric with gelatin and chitosan for soft tissue defect in oral maxillofacial area

Soft tissue defects in the oral maxillofacial area are critical problems for many patients and, in some cases, patients require an operation coupled with a performance scaffold substitution. In this research, mimicked anatomical scaffolds were constructed using gelatin- and chitosan-coated woven silk fibroin fabric. The morphologies, crystals, and structures were observed and then characterized using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray...
