Three-dimensional (3D) printing has been playing an important role in diverse areas in medicine. In order to promote the development of tissue engineering, this study attempts to fabricate tissue engineering scaffolds using the inkjet printing technology. Sodium alginate, exhibiting similar properties to the native human extracellular matrix (ECM), was used as bioink. The jetted fluid of sodium alginate would be gelatinized when printed into the calcium chloride solution. The characteristics of the 3D-printed sodium alginate scaffold were systematically measured and analyzed. The results show that, the pore size, porosity and degradation property of these scaffolds could be well controlled. This study indicates the capability of 3D bioprinting technology for preparing tissue engineering scaffolds.

AbstractThere are many parameters in extrusion-based three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting of different materials that require fine-tuning to obtain the optimal print resolution and cell viability. To standardize this process, methods such as parameter optimization index (POI) have been introduced. The POI aims at pinpointing the optimal printing speed and pressure to achieve the highest accuracy keeping theoretical shear stress low. Here we applied the POI to optimize the process of 3D bioprinting human neuroblastoma cell-laden 2% sodium alginate (SA) hydrogel using freeform reversible embedding of suspended hydrogels (FRESH). Our results demonstrate a notable difference between optimal parameters for printing 2% SA with and without cells in the hydrogel. We also detected a significant influence of long-term cell culture on the printed constructs. This observation suggests that the POI has to be evaluated in the perspective of the final application. When taking these conditions into consideration, we could define a set of parameters that resulted in good quality prints maintaining high neuroblastoma cell viability (83% viable cells) during 7 days of cell culture using 2% SA and FRESH bioprinting. These results can be further used to manufacture neuroblastoma in vitro 3D culture systems to be used for cancer research.

In this study, an advanced hybrid ink was developed, based on a thermogelling block copolymer, alginate and clay. The reversible thermogelling and shear thinning properties polymer acts at the same time as a fugitive material on the macromolecular level and facilitates the cell-laden extrusion based bioprinting. <br>

The paper presents the data on the use of nanostructured nickel sulfate in the production of marmalade as a functional food product for prophylactic purposes. The nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA method) was used to determine the size of nanostructured nickel sulfate. In this case, the smallest size (25.7 nm) is formed only in gellan gum with a core:shell ratio of 1:1. When the core:shell ratio in gellan gum is 1:3, the average size of nanocapsules is 49.9 nm. This result can be explained by the tighter packing of cobalt sulfate in the capsule. In sodium alginate, the average nanocapsule size is already 191 nm. The polydispersity index in all studied shells and at different core:shell ratios are practically equal and amounts to 0.84–1.09, which corresponds to a spherical shape.

The rheological properties of Limited Enzyme-hydrolyzed Wheat Gluten (LHWG) and its complex solutions with xanthan gum (XG), sodium alginate (SA) or gelatin were researched by Brookfield DV-Ⅱ+Pro Viscometer. The results showed that they all exhibited typical shear-thinning behavior and the higher LHWG concentration, the more evident of the shear thinning was. The effects of temperature on the rheology of LHWG were very complicated based on the concentration. The apparent viscosity of 300 mg/mL LHWG (20°C) was higher than that of 100 mg/mL and 200 mg/mL, and showed fluctuation between 20°C and 90°C, which were strongly different from that of low LHWG solution. However, the rheological properties of LHWG were influenced slightly by shearing time.
