Solid matrix-assisted printing for three-dimensional structuring of a viscoelastic medium surface

A novel three-dimensional printing of electroconductive scaffolds for bone cancer therapy application

Objective(s): Tissue engineering aims to achieve a tissue, which has highly interconnected porous microstructure concurrent with appropriate mechanical and biological properties. Materials and Methods: Therefore, the microstructure scaffolds are of great importance in this field. In the present study, an electroconductive poly-lactic acid (EC-PLA) filament used to fabricate a porous bone ...

Printing three-dimensional tissue analogues with decellularized extracellular matrix bioink

The ability to print and pattern all the components that make up a tissue (cells and matrix materials) in three dimensions to generate structures similar to tissues is an exciting prospect of bioprinting. However, the majority of the matrix materials used so far for bioprinting cannot represent the complexity of natural extracellular matrix (ECM) and thus are unable to reconstitute the intrinsi...

Three-Dimensional Printing on a Budget: a Classroom-Friendly Technique for Viewing and Visualizing Solid Objects

Representing and understanding three-dimensional structures is a central problem in mathematics and science education. This paper describes a software system, Spectre, that can be used to print out a series of horizontal “slices” of three-dimensional objects onto transparency sheets. These transparencies may then be used in a (largely forgotten) half-century-old homemade device for displaying s...

Robotic positioning device for three-dimensional printing

Additive manufacturing brings a variety of new possibilities to the construction industry, extending the capabilities of existing fabrication methods whilst also creating new possibilities. Currently three-dimensional printing is used to produce small-scale objects; largescale three-dimensional printing is difficult due to the size of positioning devices and machine elements. Presently fixed Co...
