Abstract

Spinner flask bioreactors have widely been used in bone tissue engineering. However, the underlying reason for their success in facilitating bone growth remain unclear. It was hypothesised that engineered bone tissue formation can be attributed to mechanical stimuli, which can be predicted in the ti...
