Tissue engineering is a field of research in biomedical
engineering that applies the principles and methods of
engineering and life sciences toward the fundamental under-standing of structure/function relationships in normal and
pathological mammalian tissues and the development of bio-logical substitutes to restore, maintain, or improve functions
[1]. This technique involves processes such as seeding cells
onto a scaffold, creating artificial organs and tissues, and
triggering or modulating new tissue formation. Currently,
synthetic biomaterials (bioceramics and biopolymers) have
been widely applied to the tissue engineering fields [2–
6]. Also, antimicrobial materials have attracted considerable
attention because bacterial infection is a major medical
complication associated with the use of implanted medical
devices [7–9].
