A Review of Hydrogels in Droplet-based Bio-Fabrication Techniques.
In: 2nd International Conference on Digital Fabrication (ICDF 2016), 3-5 Mar, 2016, Tokyo, Japan.
Abstract
The Rapid Prototyping (RP) technologies with hydrogels as biomaterials have gained tremendous popularity in Tissue Engineering applications for scaffold development, especially for the soft scaffold developments. Droplet-based RP technologies which use hydrogels as printing materials have seen growing acceptance in past decade, as they facilitate the encapsulation of living cells and improvement of cell seeding efficiency. In this review different droplet-based RP techniques have been briefly reviewed along with various natural hydrogels used for the fabricating the scaffolds.
