Abstract
Tissue Engineering (TE) is an interdisciplinary field dealing with the principles of engineering and life sciences toward the development of biological substitutes that restore, maintain, or improve tissue function or a whole organ. Currently, TE is emerging as an invaluable field of study and is one of the most promising fields for the next century. The ultimate goal is to develop powerful new therapies for biological substitutes - that will successfully restore the structural and functional disorders of human and animal system.
