+10 Introduction Thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) are a category of materials broadly used for biomedical purposes thanks to their biocompatibility, elasticity and strength. Among the different manufacturing techniques, 3D printing technology has attracted significant attention for the production personalized TPU-based medical devices over the last decade. The preference of this technique […]

00 INTRODUCTION Gelatin hydrogels have attracted significant attention in the field of regenerative medicine, and more specifically, in their use as wound dressings and artificial tissue replacements. Among the different photo-crosslinkable gelatin materials, gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) hydrogels display a series of advantages, such as good biocompatibility (including biosafety and biological […]
+30 INTRODUCTION Type I collagen is the most abundant type of collagen in the human body, as a major structural matrix protein in skin and many other tissues including bone, tendon and fibrous connective tissues. ColBioink is a sterile solution of highly purified collagen type I from porcine origin that […]
+10 INTRODUCTION Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the extracellular matrix (ECM), accounting for 30% of the total body protein content in humans. Amongst the 28 types of collagen that have been already identified, collagen type I is the most abundant by far, playing its most prominent functional […]
+20 In the picture: 👀 99% of cell viability with ColBioink formulation. This material is a native Type I collagen formulation that comes from porcine origin and is in a “ready to print format”. It also ensures that the formed structures can be safely grafted without immune rejection and used […]
