3D bioprinting has significantly gained popularity in recent years as a mean to create custom structural scaffolds that are hierarchical and biologically functional. Optimizing the bioink involves targeting characteristics such as viscosity, crosslinking capabilities,...
CellScale presents Collections – a gathering of publications from a researcher in their particular topic of interest that included one or more CellScale instruments. Collections showcases the depth of research that can be achieved with the instruments and their...
An inverse double network (IDN) hydrogel is a setup of a neutral hydrogel layer with a polyelectrolyte polymer layer adhered to it. This bilayer design allows for changes in volume when either layer responds differently to stimulus (pH, temperature, light, etc.). The...
Here is another post in the series called Caleb’s Corner, where our company president Caleb Horst pens some original content related to biomaterials based on his insights and experience. After years of sweat and tears in research, you’ve invented a new...
Synthetic grafts have been used since the 1970s to treat cardiovascular diseases. Although autologous arteries or veins are preferred, conditions such as low patency rates and compliance mismatch tend to lead to graft failure. Tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs)...
