Resumen:
Development of electrospun scaffolds for tissue engineering vascular grafts requires the integration of well differentiated and complementary disciplines. The aim of present work is to describe a cooperative experience in biomedical research developed between academic institutions of Argentina and Uruguay. Electrospinning technique, high resolution ultrasound in-vitro measurements and signal processing algorithms were implemented in order to characterize and improve the mechanical response of mono and bi-layered polymeric structures. Each stage of the process was defined based on the maximal capabilities and expertise of each laboratory, thus optimizing the available resources.
