3D-Printed Chips: Compatibility of Additive Manufacturing Photopolymeric Substrata with Biological Applications

Blog Article

Additive manufacturing (AM) is ideal for building adaptable, structurally complex, three-dimensional, monolithic lab-on-chip (LOC) kenda k372 devices from only a computer design file.Consequently, it has potential to advance micro- to milllifluidic LOC design, prototyping, and production and further its application in areas of biomedical and biological research.However, its application in these areas jordan 12 nubuck has been hampered due to material biocompatibility concerns.

In this review, we summarise commonly used AM techniques: vat polymerisation and material jetting.We discuss factors influencing material biocompatibility as well as methods to mitigate material toxicity and thus promote its application in these research fields.
