Freeze-dried collagen scaffolds can be used for a variety of medical tissue engineering applications. The pore structure of the scaffolds might play a decisive role for the inoculation, growth and differentiation of the cells. For a controlled 3D-cell growth the pore structure needs to be homogeneous and the pore size individually adjustable. For lyophilised scaffolds, the pore structure is determined by the ice crystal morphology during freezing under steady conditions. Scaffolds with a homogeneous pore structure and a range of pore size between 25 and 100 microns were reached. Cells such as preadipocytes, keratinocytes, and fibroblasts showed to adhere well to the collagen matrix.
