4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

3D‐Printed Unibody Microfluidic Devices for Organ‐on‐Chip Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A practical approach is demonstrated to 3D printing unibody microfluidic Organ‐on‐Chip (OoC) devices using commercial resins and desktop DLP printers. The demonstrated functional devices support 2D monolayers, 3D spheroids, and barrier tissues. With optimised design and post‐processing techniques, leak‐free, biocompatible microchannels and membranes ...
