Fabrication of synthesized PCL‐PEG‐PCL tissue engineering scaffolds using an air pressure‐aided deposition system
Abstract
Purpose – Bone tissue engineering is an emerging field providing viable substitutes for bone regeneration. Poly(ε‐caprolactone) (PCL) is a good candidate for scaffold fabrication due to its high mechanical strength and excellent resistance under moist conditions, but its hydrophobicity causes cell‐attached difficulties, thus limiting its clinical application. The paper aims to develop an air pressure‐aided deposition system for fabricating scaffolds made of synthesized PCL‐PEG‐PCL copolymers and to validate the biocompatibility and hydrophilicity improvement of fabricated scaffolds.

PEG is nontoxic and water-soluble and is often used for copolymerization or blending with PCL matrix to improve the hydrophilicity of PCL-based 3D printed scaffolds.
“As a nontoxic and water-soluble polymer, poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) is often used for copolymerization or blending with PCL matrix to improve the hydrophilicity of PCL-based 3D printed scaffolds, and some interesting results have been achieved [35][36][37]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
