| - | Professore Hutmacher also stated that by converging this concept with tissue engineering, it would be likely to learn how to choose an effective combination of matrix and reinforcement structure to achieve an enhanced mechanical properties for engineering body parts. He said that hydrogels were chosen because they featured excellent biological properties. | + | Professor Hutmacher also stated that by converging this concept with tissue engineering, it would be likely to learn how to choose an effective combination of matrix and reinforcement structure to achieve an enhanced mechanical properties for engineering body parts.

| Despite of having these properties, hydrogels alone still can’t meet the requirements for a successful output for the tissue regeneration of the musculoskeletal system. | Despite of having these properties, hydrogels alone still can’t meet the requirements for a successful output for the tissue regeneration of the musculoskeletal system. | ||
