Development and characterisation of a new bioink for additive tissue manufacturing

Abstract: Additive manufacturing forms a potential route towards economically viable production of cellular constructs for tissue engineering. Hydrogels are a suitable class of materials for cell delivery and 3D culture, but are generally unsuitable as construction materials. Gelatine-methacrylamide is an example of such a hydrogel system widely used in the field of tissue engineering, e.g. for cartilage and cardiovascular applications. Here we show that by the addition of gellan gum to gelatinemethacrylamide and tailor… Show more

“…MC was included to dilute the mix during processing, with MC reported to diffuse out after crosslinking and subsequent immersion in medium [33]. The use of MC did not achieve this outcome, in contrast to the very effective N+M, with low ion concentrations maintaining GG in a loosely crosslinked state that remained pipettable due to the pseudoplasticity of the material [23].…”

“…Hydrogel groups (detailed in Table 1; mixed in phosphate buffered saline (PBS; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA) or an isotonic blend of NaCl and D-mannose (24 and 252 mM, respectively [23]; henceforth N+M) were analyzed using a Rotational Rheometer RHEOTEST RN 4.1 (RHEOTEST Medingen GmbH, Ottendorf-Okrilla, Germany) with a precise thermal control unit. Testing consisted of multiple measures on each sample for analysis of gelation temperature (T C) and viscosity (ηq across the temperature sweep.…”

“…A promising hydrogel for the biofabrication of such implants is gelatin methacryloyl (gelMA) with gellan gum, which can be UV cross-linked, retains its shape during crosslinking and culture, and was demonstrated to support chondrogenesis of embedded chondrocytes (Mouser et al, 2016b). Additionally, gelMA/gellan is compatible with 3D printing techniques, which facilitate accurate positioning of the (cell-laden) biomaterial (Mouser et al, 2016b;Melchels et al, 2014).…”

“…To fill the defects, gelMA was synthesized from porcine gelatin and 10% gelMA + 0.5% gellan gum solution was freshly prepared, both as previously described (Mouser et al, 2016b;Melchels et al, 2014). GelMA/gellan (10 µl per defect) was dispensed into the defect without chondrocytes (conditions A, E) or with embedded chondrocytes (conditions B, C, D; Fig.…”
