Bioprinting process optimization: evaluation of parameters influence on the extrusion of inorganic polymers

Bioprinting consists in an innovative approach able to improve the current techniques of bioregeneration in the medical field through the extrusion of cell-loaded bioinks. Its main advantage is the customization to reduce post-operative complications on the patient, as it can be produced from his own cells. The success of bioprinting is determined by the printing parameters but, above all, by the materials. The goal of this work was to define a range of parameters, in order to achieve the highest printing stability, in terms of the quality of the Bioplotter® Silicone TG in relation to process conditions used.
