3D Bioplotter Research Papers

Three-dimensional (3D) printing incorporated with controlled delivery is an effective tool for complex tissue regeneration. Here, we explored a new strategy for spatiotemporal delivery of bioactive cues by establishing a precise-controlled micro-thin coating of hydrogel carriers on 3D-printed scaffolds. We optimized the printing parameters for three hydrogel carriers, fibrin cross-linked with genipin, methacrylate hyaluronic acid, and multidomain peptides, resulting in homogenous micro-coating on desired locations in 3D printed polycaprolactone microfibers at each layer. Using the optimized multi-head printing technique, we successfully established spatial-controlled micro-thin coating of hydrogel layers containing profibrogenic small molecules (SMs), Oxotremorine M and PPBP maleate, and a…
