Sustainable Scaffolds-based Strategies in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine

This book provides a concise overview of research on the design and fabrication methods of novel scaffolds, addressing both technological challenges and sustainability issues. It covers sustainable biomaterials and eco-friendly methods for biomaterials synthesis and scaffold processing techniques, along with recent developments in scaffolds-based strategies for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications.

The content is organized into three main sections comprising 15 chapters: sustainable scaffold techniques and designs in tissue engineering; natural materials and eco-wastes used as sacrificial templates; and biomedical applications. A concluding section offers the editors' perspective on current achievements and future directions in the field.

With contributions from leading and multidisciplinary experts, this work serves as an up-to-date reference for students and researchers aiming to incorporate sustainability into their research activities. This is the first edition, published in 2025 as part of the Biomaterials, Bioengineering and Sustainability series.
