ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a novel method, permitting the semiquantitative determination of the confluence of a cell layer on the total surface of a porous biomaterial, without irreversible damage to part or indeed all of the hybrid construct. A method is described for the first time, which is able to detect the formation of the confluence or the confluence itself, without destroying the hybrid construct, and thus permits the finished hybrid product to be withdrawn from the essential growth conditions only after the determination of the completed confluence, and to immediately direct it to its further use.
