摘要：
Porous soy protein-based materials are provided. Also provided are tissue growth scaffolds comprising the porous soy protein-based materials. Methods for forming the porous soy protein-based materials and methods for growing tissue on the tissue growth scaffolds are also provided. The porous soy protein-based materials comprise a plurality of soy protein chains that are crosslinked in a three-dimensional structure that provides a high degree of porosity. In order to achieve highly porous structures, the soy proteins, which are globular in nature, can be partially denatured in order to facilitate crosslinking between, and entanglement of, the soy protein chains.
