A new scaffold material composed of extracellular matrix （ECM） and thermal sensitive hydrogel （HG）, and evaluated its biocompatibility were investigated. We cultured bladder smooth muscle cells with this compound material, and then observed with phase contrast microscopy and scanning electron microscope （SEM） to assess the cell growth and morphology. The cell adhesion and proliferation were detected with MTT assay and cell count. Results show the ECM/HG compounds appeared as a net-like and red-stained construction with enough meshes and without any cellular fragments. 6 h after implantation, cells were observed adhere on the compounds and extend spurious along the fibers 12 h later. Under SEM even some ECM was observed to be secreted. MTT assay shows there was obvious statistic difference among 3 groups （P〈0.05）. ECM/HG compound materials show a good biocompatibility, which confirms that it would be an ideal tissue engineering scaffolds.
