By: N. Thoppey  n, J. Bochinski n , L. Clarke n  & R. Gorga n 

TL;DR: The electrospinning process per jet is directly analogous to that in TNE and thereby results in the same quality of nanofibers, with a demonstrated ∼ 40 times increase in the production rate for a single batch of solution due primarily to the presence of many simultaneous jets.

TL;DR: It was noted that at the highest TCP loading levels of 10 and 20 wt%, there was a dramatic increase in the amount of cell-mediated mineralization compared to the 5 wt% TCP and the neat PLA scaffold, suggesting that local environment cues provided by the biochemical nature of the scaffold can accelerate the overall osteogenic differentiation of hASCs and encourage rapid ossification.
