Background:

  • The avian eggshell membrane is a byproduct of the egg industry.
  • Its physicochemical properties are crucial for shell mineralization.
  • It has potential applications in regenerative medicine.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the biological, physical, and mechanical properties of the eggshell membrane.
  • To assess its suitability for developing bone regenerative materials.
  • To explore its potential as a scaffold and bio-ink.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of existing studies on eggshell membrane properties.
  • Analysis of biocompatibility, cytotoxicity, and cellular responses.
  • Evaluation of mechanical properties and biodegradability.

Main Results:

  • Eggshell membrane is biocompatible, non-cytotoxic, and promotes cell proliferation and differentiation.
  • It elicits a mild inflammatory response in vivo and exhibits stability and biodegradability.
  • Its viscoelastic behavior is comparable to collagen-based biomaterials.

Conclusions:

  • The eggshell membrane's properties make it a suitable natural polymer for bone graft material development.
  • Its low cost and availability align with circular economy principles.
  • Further tuning can enhance its potential for tailored implantable scaffolds and 3D bioprinting.
