Preclinical Validation of SilkBridgeTM for Peripheral Nerve Regeneration

Preclinical Validation of SilkBridgeTM for Peripheral Nerve Regeneration

Silk fibroin (Bombyx mori) was used to manufacture a nerve conduit (SilkBridgeTM) characterized by a novel 3D architecture. The wall of the conduit consists of two electrospun layers (inner and outer) and one textile layer (middle), perfectly integrated at the structural and functional level. The ma...
