Tissue Enginnering Products and Biomaterials in Wound Healing in Veterinary Medicine

Abstract

Current practice of regenerative medicine succesfully takes the advantages of tissue engineering products and biomaterials consisted of scaffolds, cells and biologically active molecules. With the help of these products, restoration, maintainance and healing of damaged tissues became faster, cost effective and the most important provides patient comfort with considerably less suffering. These materials are also introduced to veterinary practice, but unfortunately has not been benefited sufficiently yet. This review overviews the features, efficiencies and areas of utilization in wound healing in veterinary practice, of these commercially available and efficient materials.
