| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tissue-engineered skeletal muscle for a soft actuator was investigated in three points of thickening and elongation, bend and stretch structure, and longtime application. For thickening and elongation, a collagen sponge scaffold having angiostructure was newly developed and seeded myoblasts inside were cultured by circulation bioreactor. For bend and stretch structure, controlled electric field stimulation could be applied to tissue-engineered muscle by parallel electrodes. For longtime application, circulation bioreactor could maintain the tissue-engineered muscle for more than one month.
