Provides an up-to-date outline of cell assembly methods and
applications of 3D bioprinting
Cell Assembly with 3D Bioprinting provides an accesible overview of
the layer-by-layer manufacturing of living structures using
biomaterials. Focusing on technical implemention in medical and
bioengineering applications, this practical guide summarize each key
aspect of the 3D bioprinting process. Contributions from a team of
leading researchers describe bioink preparation, printing method
selection, experimental protocols, integration with specific
applications, and more.
Detailed, highly illustrated chapters cover different bioprinting
approaches and their applications, including coaxial bioprinting,
digital light projection, direct ink writing, liquid support
bath-assisted 3D printing, and microgel-, microfiber-, and
microfluidics-based biofabrication. The book includes practical examples
of 3D bioprinting, a protocol for typical 3D bioprinting, and relevant
experimental data drawn from recent research.
