The skin is the largest organ of the body, which meets the environment most directly. Thus,
the skin is vulnerable to various damages, particularly burn injury. Skin wound healing is a …

Situations where normal autografts cannot be used to replace damaged skin often lead to a
greater risk of mortality, prolonged hospital stay and increased expenditure for the National …

We present a method to create multi-layered engineered tissue composites consisting of
human skin fibroblasts and keratinocytes which mimic skin layers. Three-dimensional (3D) …

The current trend of burn wound care has shifted to more holistic approach of improvement
in the long-term form and function of the healed burn wounds and quality of life. This has …

The engineering of skin substitutes and their application on human patients has become a
reality. However, cell biologists, biochemists, technical engineers, and surgeons are still …
