The influence of bioreactor geometry and the mechanical environment on engineered tissues
A three phase model for the growth of a tissue construct within a perfusion bioreactor is examined. The cell population (and attendant extracellular matrix), culture medium and porous scaffold are treated as distinct phases. The bioreactor system is represented by a two-dimensional channel containin...
