Abstract Bioprocessing applications that derive meat products from animal cell cultures require food-safe culture substrates support volumetric expansion and maturation of adherent muscle cells. Here we demonstrate scalable production microfibrous gelatin supports cultured cells derived cow rabbit. As is a natural component meat, resulting collagen denaturation during processing cooking, our extruded microfibers recapitulated structural biochemical features tissues. Using immersion rotary...

We describe the development of an elastomer-molded vas model as a microsurgical training tool, particularly for vasectomy reversals. This tool is formed by molding polydimethylsiloxane into deferens shape with patent lumen through use 3D printed mold and simple monofilament wires. The expanded our will allow urologists in to improve develop their skills outside patient caseloads without need extensive cadaveric or animal practice.
