In this study, a 3D construct is obtained in vitro by combining chitosan microparticles crosslinked with genipin and goat bone marrow stromal cells (GBMCs). Cell viability and the morphology of GBMCs were evaluated after culture for 7 and 14 days. Our results show the feasibility of chitosan microparticles as potential injectable scaffolds for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. date: 2008-08 date_type: published id_number: 10.1002/term.106 uniqueid: glaseprints:2008-77169 published_online: 2008-07-10 issn_online: 1932-7005 scopus_impact: 26 scopus_cluster: 2-s2.0-60749091288 scopus_datestamp: 2013-10-26 09:33:15 wos_impact: 22 wos_cluster: WOS:000258604400009 wos_datestamp: 2013-05-21 23:20:53 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine volume: 2 number: 6 pagerange: 378-380 refereed: TRUE issn: 1932-6254 hoa_compliant: 305 hoa_date_pub: 2008-07-10 hoa_exclude: FALSE hoa_gold: FALSE citation: García Cruz, D.M., Escobar Ivirico, J.L., Gomes, M.M., Gómez Ribelles, J.L., Salmerón-Sánchez, M. , Reis, R.L. and Mano, J.F.
