The search for suitable three-dimensional (3D) scaffolds analogous to the natural extracellular matrices is a central task in the field of tissue engineering (TE). These scaffolds should deliver cells to the desired site in the patient’s body supporting the formation of new tissue [1]. Various hydrogels have recently been used to mimic the extracellular matrix of several tissues; however the adaptation of materials properties and scaffolds geometry for TE remains a challenge.
