Abstract

See full text

The present invention is directed to a transplantable cartilage matrix and a method for its in vitro production. In accordance with the method, chondrocytes are cultered for an amount of time effective for allowing formation of a chondrogenic cell-associated matrix. Chondrogenic cells, each with a cell-associated matrix, are recovered and cultured on a semipermeable membrane for a time effective for formation of a cohesive cartilage matrix.
