Articular cartilage injuries experienced at an early age can lead to the development of osteoarthritis later in life. In situ three-dimensional (3D) printing is exciting and innovative biofabrication technology that enables surgeon deliver tissue-engineering techniques time location need. We have created a hand-held 3D device (biopen) allows simultaneous coaxial extrusion bioscaffold cultured cells directly into defect vivo single-session surgery. This pilot study assessed ability biopen...
We present a new approach which aims to translate freeform biofabrication into the surgical field, while staying true practical constraints of operating theatre. Herein we describe development handheld tool, dubbed 'biopen', enables deposition living cells and biomaterials in manual, direct-write fashion. A gelatin–methacrylamide/hyaluronic acid–methacrylate (GelMa/HAMa) hydrogel was printed UV crosslinked during process generate surgically sculpted 3D structures. Custom titanium nozzles...
Photon upconversion (UC) by triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA-UC) is employed in order to enhance the response of solar cells sub-bandgap light. Here, we present first report an integrated photovoltaic device, combining a dye-sensitized cell (DSC) and TTA-UC system. The device displays enhanced current under illumination, resulting figure merit (FoM) low concentration (3 suns), which competitive with best values recorded date for nonintegrated systems. Thus, demonstrate both compatibility...
Coiled planar capillary chromatography columns (0.9 mm I.D. × 60 cm L) were 3D printed in stainless steel (316L), and titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloys (external dimensions of ~5 30 58 mm), either slurry packed with various sized reversed-phase octadecylsilica particles, or filled an situ prepared methacrylate based monolith. coupled directly Peltier thermoelectric direct contact heater/cooler modules. Preliminary results show the potential using such future portable chromatographic devices.
