Time-efficient fabrication method for 3D-printed microfluidic devices
Abstract Recent developments in 3D-printing technology have provided a time-efficient and inexpensive alternative to the fabrication of microfluidic devices. At present, 3D-printed microfluidic systems face the challenges of post-processing, non-transparency, and being time consuming, limiting their practical application. In this study, a time-efficient and inexpensive fabrication method was developed for 3D-printed microfluidic devices. The material [...]
Functionalized Microgel Rods Interlinked into Soft Macroporous Structures for 3D Cell Culture
1 Introduction To understand interactions between living matter and artificial materials, tissue engineering research groups focus on the development of 3D scaffolds with increasingly controllable properties, reaching from biochemical interactions at molecular scale to nanoscale hydrogel networks, micrometer-scale pores, and macroscopic architectures.[1] Soft hydrogel scaffolds are conventionally formed by crosslinking a precursor solution, resulting in soft, [...]
