3D dual porosity protein-based scaffolds have been developed using the combination of foaming and freeze-drying. The suggested approach leads to the production of large, highly porous scaffolds with negligible shrinkage and deformation compared to the conventional freeze-drying method. Scanning electron microscopy, standard histological processing and mercury intrusion porosimetry confirmed the formation of a dual network in the form of big primary pores (243 +/- 14 mu m) embracing smaller secondary pores (42 +/- 3 mu m) opened onto their surface, resembling a vascular network. High interconnectivity of the pores, confirmed by micro-CT, is shown to improve diffusion kinetics and support a relatively uniform distribution of isolated human dental pulp stem cells within the scaffold compared to conventional scaffolds. Dual network scaffolds indicate more than three times as high cell proliferation capability as conventional scaffolds in 14 days.
