  • Publication number: 20160136332
    Abstract: A three-dimensional, porous structure made of fragments of a nanofibre web is provided. Furthermore, a method for the production of a three-dimensional, porous structure made of nanofibre web fragments is proposed. The three-dimensional, porous structure is used for example in medicine, preferably in regenerative medicine. Furthermore, the structure according to the invention made of fragments of a nanofibre web can be used for the treatment of tissue damage, for the immobilisation of biological cells, for the construction of biological tissue and as a biological filler in vitro and also in vivo.

  • Publication number: 20120219533
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the in vitro production of intervertebral disk cartilage cell transplants from affected intervertebral disk tissue from patients and to the use thereof as transplantation material for the treatment of affected intervertebral disks. The invention also relates to a three-dimensional, vital, and mechanically stable intervertebral disk cartilage tissue and to the use thereof as transplantation material for the treatment of affected intervertebral disks and in testing active substances. Furthermore, the invention is directed to the surgical technique for incorporating the transplants, to the intervertebral disk cell transplants and intervertebral disk cartilage tissues produced, and to therapeutic formulations, e.g. injection solutions, which include said tissue and said cell transplants.
