Publication Title:
In Vitro Maturation and In Vivo Stability of Bioprinted Human Nasal Cartilage
Advanced BioMatrix Products Used:
Lifeink® 200 35 mg/ml type I Collagen Bioink
How the products were used:
Lifeink 200 collagen bioink was 3D bioprinted using FRESH printing. The bioink was pre-mixed with human nasal chondrocytes. After culturing, the prints demonstrated required mechanical properties and were able to be implanted and evaluated.
Article Conclusion:
The resulting 3D bioprinted engineered nasal cartilage constructs were comparable or better than the controls both in vitro and in vivo. This study demonstrates that 3D bioprinted constructs of engineered nasal cartilage are feasible options in nasal cartilage reconstructive surgeries.
