in details in the following subsections. The experimental details for
the preparation by CAWS of the polymeric mixtures used in the
fabrication of a set of polyester-based scaffolds reported in literature
and the corresponding optimized fabrication parameters are summarized in Tables 1 and 2, respectively.
Fig. 2 CAWS apparatus: representative pictures of the CAWS apparatus employed for polymeric scaffold
fabrication and the layer-by-layer deposition process
Fig. 3 PCL80 0.5 scaffolds: (a) representative picture of a 3D scaffold (measure unit ¼ 1 mm); representative
scanning electron microscopy micrographs of scaffold’s (b) top view and (c) cross-section (insert high
magnification images show porosity of the fibers)
