Collagen is widely used in tissue engineering because it can be extracted in large quantities, and has excellent biocompatibility, good biodegradability, and weak antigenicity. In the present study, we isolated printable ...

Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a biodegradable and thermoprocessable biopolymer, making it a promising candidate for applications in tissue engineering. In the present study a structural characterization and in vitro ...

Scaffolds of collagen and collagen with hyaluronic acid were fabricated using 3D printing and crosslinked bydehydrothermal treatment. Rheological measurements of both these dispersions revealed high values of viscosityand ...

Tridimensional printing is becoming relevant in medicine, specially in surgical and interventional specialties. We review the technical aspects and clinical application of airway tridimensional printing. Using this technique, ...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a rapidly growing technology and plays an emerging role in several biomedical applications. Polylactic acid (PLA) is one of the most common materials in 3D printing, however, it is ...

This article reviews the current state of the art of additive manufacturing techniques for the production of bone tissue engineering (BTE) scaffolds. The most well-known of these techniques include: stereolithography, ...

Com a evolução no desenvolvimento de biomateriais, a utilização de matrizes tridimensionais (scaffolds), construídas a partir de impressão tridimensional (3DP), via SLS (selective laser sinterization) e por Extrusão de ...

Purpose: To use a 3D printed poly (L-lactide) acid (PLLA) and hydroxyapatite (HA) composite as a bone substitute for reconstruction of a critical bone defect in the radius of rabbits. Methods: A 1.5 cm ostectomy was performed ...
