Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

Minor revision

1) Title: ok

2) Abstract: is more general; please specify exactly the area of the review position, if you can add some numbers (100% compatible or less?).

3) Keywords: add biopolymers instead of polymers (if you are using bio-product if synthetics doesn’t matter)

4) Introduction: poor references, please add some others to shows exactly the art state of this topic

5) About fossil polymers: any information about their toxicity?

if so please remove them (the first condition they should to be non-toxic).

6) Conclusions and Final Remarks (add your perspectives)

7) References an update by adding 2023

With regards

Reviewer 2 Report

line 69.- Change Focued for Focused

Figure 1.- Described the differences between figure 1a and 1b

line 81.- Change natural gass for gas.

line 94.- Change utilised for utilized.

Figure 2.- change focused and colonization.

line 159.- separete inmunogenicity and "and".

line 175.- Aslo for also.

And... A lot more; please check them.

Because your work is a review, you should consider and add the molecule of every polymer you explain.

Figure 3. Describe better the differences between both figures.

You should considerate the separation of chitosan and fibrin; by the way, is chitin not used as a cellular scaffold?

Overall, please describe better the differences between all your figures.

 

 

There are a lot of things that could be improved in the writing, I made just a few changes, but it takes a lot of time to waste checking the grammar errors instead of the scientifical soundness.

Reviewer 3 Report

The review article by Sara Agocsova and others, entitled “Resorbable biomaterials used for 3D scaffolds in tissue engineering: A review” summarize key biomaterials used as scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. The following comments need to be address by the authors:

1-    In page 2, line 47: The authors stated: “Scaffold is a three-dimensional (3D) mesh”. This is a very week and narrow definition for “scaffold”. Please consult the literature and give a more accurate definition.

2-    The English quality needs to be improved and use more scientific terms.

3-    The authors must carefully edit the text and pay attention to the many typo and formatting issues. Few examples: In page 1 line 22-23, in the abstract section. There is a formatting issue. In page 5, line 159: There is a typo, space is missing between in “immunogenicityand”. Also, line 165 an extra full stop after “units. .”.

The English quality needs to be improved and use more scientific terms.
