A scaffold is provided, the scaffold comprising: at least one inlet tube; at least one outlet tube; and a plurality of porous elongated microtubes, wherein each one of said porous elongated microtube has an inner diameter of 5-100 micrometers, wherein said plurality of elongated microtubes extend from said at least one inlet tube to said at least one outlet tube and is in fluid communication thereto, Further provided is a method for producing and using the scaffold, such as for tissue engineering.

The present invention comprises a polymeric based femoral and/or tibial component implant to be used in total knee replacement/arthroplasty procedures serving to provide increased wear resistance, enhanced physiological response at the bone/implant interface, and decreased stress-shielding. The implant can be made via additive manufacturing. The articulating surface of the implant may be implemented in without any additive or in a form containing an additive for improved tribological response. Further, the device disclosed herein contains an interfacial surface which is in contact with the native bone (i.e., bone/implant interface) which may exist in its pure form, containing a bioactive additive. The implant has a porous morphology on the bone/implant interface for improved biological response and improved fixation. The depth of the additives and the topographical morphology therein are controlled via techniques disclosed herein.

A method of recovering progenitor cells from bone marrow aspirate. A bone void filler preparation container is provided. The bone void filler preparation container has an inlet port and an outlet port. A bone graft matrix having a particle size of between about 1,000 m and about 2,000 m is placed in the bone void filler preparation container. A bone marrow aspirate is passed through the bone void filler preparation container. Progenitor cells in the bone marrow aspirate are retained in the bone void filler preparation container. Greater than about 83 percent of the progenitor cells in the bone marrow aspirate are retained in the bone void filler preparation container.

A bone bioactive composition and kits comprising the composition, means for applying it and/or a metal implant are provided. The bone bioactive composition comprises a water-based salt solution comprising sodium dihydrogen phosphate and sodium chloride, and may also comprise additional elements. The composition and the kits are useful for promoting osteogenesis, particularly when a metal implant is used but also in case of periodontal diseases.

A porous bionic skull repairing material includes a polymer material, whose structure is consistent with that of a human skull. The surface layers of the porous bionic skull repairing material are dense layers which are composed of non-degradable or degradable polymer materials and has blind holes having an asymmetric structure, and the inner layer of the porous bionic skull repairing material is a loose layer which has a porous structure. The repairing material can be molded by adopting a mixed mould pressing method or a 3D printing method, simulates a bone structure, with two dense sides and a loose middle, of a human skull to the greatest extent.
