At present there is a growing need for tissue engineering products, including the products of scaffold-technologies. Biopolymer hydrogel scaffolds have a number of advantages and are increasingly being used to provide means of cell transfer for therapeutic treatments and for inducing tissue regeneration. This work presents original hydrogel biopolymer scaffolds based on a blood plasma cryoprecipitate and collagen and formed under conditions of enzymatic hydrolysis. Two differently originated collagens were used for the scaffold formation. During this work the structural and mechanical characteristics of the scaffold were studied. It was found that, depending on the origin of collagen, scaffolds possess differences in their structural and mechanical characteristics. Both types of hydrogel scaffolds have good biocompatibility and provide conditions that maintain the three-dimensional growth of adipose tissue stem cells. Hence, scaffolds based on such a blood plasma cryoprecipitate and collagen have good prospects as cell carriers and can be widely used in regenerative medicine.
