Cell Electrospinning: Revolutionising Cell Scaffolding for Healthcare.

Electrospinning is a century-old technology, which has recently found its vast applicability to many areas of research and development and its utility in industry. In the context of the life and health sciences, electrospinning for many years has been explored as a unique approach to scaffolding, on which cells are manually or through automated means seeded with cells. Unfortunately, this approach has seen little being achieved, as the voids generated between fibers within a scaffold negate cell infiltration throughout the entire scaffold. This limitation is a bottleneck for electrospinning in its true applicability to the healthcare and medical sciences.
