Blueprint for a lipase support: Use of hydrophobic controlled-pore glasses as model systems.

abstract：:Surface modified bioactive glass with surface properties akin to those of the bone mineral phase is an attractive candidate for use as a microcarrier material for 3-D growth of bone-like tissue in rotating wall vessel bioreactors (RWVs). The critical surface properties of this material are the result of reaction in so...
