As the essential foundation of bioprinting technology, cell-laden bio-ink is confronted with inevitable contradiction between printability and bioactivity. For example, type I collagen has been widely applied for its excellent biocompatibility; however, relatively low self-assembly speed restricts performance in high-precision structures. In this study, we synthesize norbornene-functionalized neutral soluble (NorCol) by reaction acid-soluble (Col) carbic anhydride aqueous phase. NorCol...
