3D Bio-Printed Bone Scaffolds Incorporated with Natural Antibacterial Compounds

Journal of Materials Science and Chemical Engineering 2022 Volume 10, Pages 63-69

3D Bioprinting plays an irreplaceable role in bone tissue engineering. Shellac and curcumin are two natural compounds that are widely used in the food and pharmaceutical sectors. In this study, a new composite scaffold with good biocompatibility and antibacterial ability was manufactured by adding shellac and curcumin into the traditional bone scaffold through low-temperature three-dimensional printing (LT-3DP), and its impact on the osteoimmune microenvironment was evaluated.
