UNSW team prints ‘bones’ with living cells – Australian Hospital + Healthcare Bulletin
UNSW Sydney scientists have developed a ceramic-based ink that may allow surgeons in the future to 3D print bone parts complete with living cells.
Scientists from UNSW Sydney have developed a ceramic-based ink that may allow surgeons in the future to 3D print bone parts complete with living cells that could be used to repair damaged bone tissue.
Using a 3D printer that deploys a special ink made up of calcium phosphate, the research team developed a technique called ceramic omnidirectional bioprinting in cell-suspensions (COBICS), which enables the printing of bone-like structures that harden in a matter of minutes when placed in water.
