Abstract
Additive manufacturing (3D printing) has been deployed across multiple platforms to fabricate bioengineered tissues. We demonstrate the use of a Thermal Inkjet Pipette System (TIPS) for targeted delivery of cells onto manufactured substrates to design bio-bandages. Two cell lines - HEK 293 (kidney) and K7M2 wt (bone) - were applied using TIPS. We demonstrate a novel means for targeted cell delivery to a hydrogel support structure. These cell/support constructs (bio-bandages) had a high viability for survival and growth over extended periods. Combining a flexible biosupport with application of cells via TIPS printing now for the first time allows for custom cell substrate constructs with various densities to be deployed for regenerative medicine applications.
期刊介绍:
BioTechniques is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to publishing original laboratory methods, related technical and software tools, and methods-oriented review articles that are of broad interest to professional life scientists, as well as to scientists from other disciplines (e.g., chemistry, physics, computer science, plant and agricultural science and climate science) interested in life science applications for their technologies.
Since 1983, BioTechniques has been a leading peer-reviewed journal for methods-related research. The journal considers:
Reports describing innovative new methods, platforms and software, substantive modifications to existing methods, or innovative applications of existing methods, techniques & tools to new models or scientific questions
Descriptions of technical tools that facilitate the design or performance of experiments or data analysis, such as software and simple laboratory devices
Surveys of technical approaches related to broad fields of research
Reviews discussing advancements in techniques and methods related to broad fields of research
Letters to the Editor and Expert Opinions highlighting interesting observations or cautionary tales concerning experimental design, methodology or analysis.
