Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Tissue engineering, as one of the most challenging research areas, can afford alternative materials for growth and regeneration of damaged organs and tissues. The efficiency and success of tissue engineering highly dependent on the materials applied for the development of matrixes. Biocompatibility, mechanical properties, and functionality of materials are the key factors for determining the performance of the final matrix. Biopolymers (including polysaccharides, polypeptides, polyphenols, etc.) have got particular attention on research as accessible biomaterials for tissue engineering applications.
Accordingly, this special issue will focus on recent progresses and developments related to the utilizing of biopolymers as promising biomaterials for tissue engineering and regeneration. We invite you to submit you research articles, review papers and short communication which can generate new insights into this area of science.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Polymers is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
