Tissue engineering needs a biomaterial as a framework for single cells to build a vital and well functioning tissue. A future challenge is to modify biomaterials used this purpose in a way that they imitate in their composition and/or structure the native and physiological conditions for the tissue specific cells. This review gives a survey about types of the used biomaterials, processing techniques and biomimetic aspects.
