REGENERATIVE MEDICINE Regenerative medicine is a new way of treating injuries and diseases that uses specially-grown tissues and

cells (including stem cells), laboratory-made compounds, and artificial organs. Centrifugation is a process that involves the use of the centrifugal force for the sedimentation of mixtures with a centrifuge, used in industry and in laboratory settings. Scaffolds Cells are often implanted or 'seeded' into an artificial structure capable of supporting three-dimensional tissue formation Bio Reactor A bioreactor is a vessel in which is carried out a chemical process which involves organisms or biochemically active substances derived from such organisms. Extraction the process of obtaining something from a mixture or compound by chemical or physical or mechanical means ARTIFICIAL BLADDERS is an artificial organ to replace a urinary bladder. xenogenic Originating outside of the organism, or from a foreign substance that has been introduced into the organism. Chitosan Chitosan is derived from chitin, a polysaccharide found in the exoskeleton of shellfish such as shrimp, lobster, and or crabs.

ALLOGENEIC Cells or tissues which are genetically different because they are derived from separate individuals of the same species. GLYCOSAMINOGLYCAN are long unbranchedpolysaccharides consisting of a repeating disaccharide unit. The repeating unit consists of ahexose (six-carbon sugar) or a hexuronic acid, linked to a hexosamine (six-carbon sugar containing nitrogen). fibroblast is a type of cell that synthesizes the extracellular matrix and collagen,[1] the structural framework (stroma) for animal tissues, and plays a critical role in wound healing. Fibroblasts are the most common cells of connective tissue in animals. Endothelial cells are oblong shaped cells that line the lumen of all blood vessels as a single squamous epithelial cell layer. Cartilage is a type of connective tissue in the body. It is made of cells called chondrocytesembedded in a matrix, strengthened with fibers of collagen and sometimes elastin, depending on the type of cartilage. Chondrocytes are the only cells found incartilage. They produce and maintain the cartilaginous matrix, which consists mainly ofcollagen and proteoglycans Trypsin is a serine protease found in the digestive system of many vertebrates, where it hydrolyses proteins.
