3D printed scaffold brings uniformity to cell growth

A team of researchers from MIT (MA, USA) has developed a system for the fine-scale printing of lattice meshes, allowing for the growth of cells that are highly uniform in shape and size. Researchers from MIT (MA, USA) have developed a strategy for the extremely fine-scale 3D printing of lattice structures for the growth of highly uniform cells. Reported in the journal, Microsystems and Nanoengineering, the technique utilizes an electric field to draw 3D printed fibers one-tenth the width of a human hair. As previously reported in a round-up of 4D printed materials news, cells can be influenced and manipulated...
