In this work, we report a one-step fabrication and high sensitive pressure sensor to measure the contraction of an artificial muscle/bioactuator. The physical signal was quantified through the variation of the voltage as ...

Cell microencapsulation is an attractive strategy for cell-based therapies that allows the implantation of genetically engineered cells and the continuous delivery of de novo produced therapeutic products. However, the ...

The aim of this paper is to review the recent evolution of additive manufacturing (AM) within the medical field of preoperative surgical planning. The discussion begins with an overview of the different techniques, pointing ...

Hoy, el proceso de fabricación aditiva encuentra su lugar en el campo de la medicina. La impresión 3D ofrece un enfoque innovador que permite crear estructuras complejas y personalizadas. Además, las propiedades únicas de ...

Concave surfaces have shown to promote bone regeneration in vivo. However, bone scaffolds obtained by direct ink writing, one of the most promising approaches for the fabrication of personalized bone grafts, consist mostly ...

A main challenge of Tissue engineering is to create sustainable scaffolds that provide optimal biological properties to mimic the extracellular matrix(ECM). The aim of this project is to develop RGD modified alginate bioinks ...

Additive manufacturing allows for the production of porous metallic implants for use in orthopaedics, providing excellent mechanical stability and osseointegration. However, the increased surface area of such porous implants ...

A biodegradable copolyester, poly(butylene succinate-co-e-caprolactone) (PBS_CL), was used for first time as an excipient for pharmaceutical dosage forms using direct compression and hot processing techniques (ultrasound-assisted ...

Here, a smart mesh actuator, able to self-evolve under temperature and humidity control,has been developed. Thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm)-based materialsare widely appliedin ...

Although the impact of composites based on Ti-doped calcium phosphate glasses is low compared with that of bioglass, they have been already shown to possess great potential for bone tissue engineering. Composites made of ...
