“…Adherence to the conventional patentable subject matters is no longer tenable in light of today’s technological revolutions. Biomaterials are playing an increasingly vital role in numerous industrial sectors [ 61 ]. Arguably, 3D bioprinting provides a meeting point between biomaterials production and industries, as it enables the manufacture of multiple copies of one design.…”

A combination of 3D printing techniques and synthetic biology, 3D bioprinting is a promising field. It is expected that 3D bioprinting technologies will have applications across an array of fields, spanning biotechnology, medical surgery and the pharmaceutical industry. Nonetheless, the progress of these technologies could be hindered, unless there is adequate and effective protection for related applications. In this article, the authors examine the patent eligibility of 3D bioprinting technologies. This issue raises concern given that existing patent systems are generally averse to nature-derived inventions and many of them exclude products of nature or discoveries from patentability. This qualitative study analyses the current patent systems in key jurisdictions, particularly, the U.S. and the EU, and their applicability, as well as effectiveness, in the context of 3D bioprinting. The study argues that the main reason for the apathy of existing patent systems towards bio-inventions is that they were designed to deal with mechanical inventions. It suggests an innovation framework that encompasses both mechanical and biological inventions to cater adequately to emerging technologies.

“…This growing development has provided biopolymers with an opportunity to pose as a potential alternative to the petroleum-derived polymers which are harmful to nature and synthetic. [71][72][73] For sustainable development, ideal products are biodegradable composites where the matrix part is also biodegradable. Environmentally friendly composites from plant-derived fibers are novel materials of the 21 st century.…”

“…To enhance the functionality of PLA whilst maintaining an environmentally friendly material, composite material formation using a reinforcement matter is a suitable approach. The combination of organic materials (i.e., cellulose), that are biodegradable, 71,72 and reproducible bioplastics can be made to suit the demands of specific applications. Furthermore, their exclusive properties may create new market development opportunities for biocomposites, in the era of green materials.…”

More recently, natural polymers produced by living organisms have received considerable attention due to their unique properties such as eco-friendliness, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. These polymers possess similar properties to conventional plastics, making them suitable potential plastic substitutes for sustainable development and conservation of finite oil resources. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is comparable to commonly used plastics but is inferior, thus limited applications. However, PLA can benefit from the incorporation of various polymer components with complementary properties to yield improved physical properties. The fabrication of fully bio-based nanocomposites such as that of PLA and cellulose is of particular interest to research scientists. Incorporating organic fillers such as nanocellulose in a PLA matrix gives rise to improved composite properties. Because plant cell walls comprise semicrystalline cellulose molecules embedded in matrices, the crystalline portion of the stiff chains extracted from medicinal plants is currently exploited for potential filler roles. In this review, the use of medicinal plants in bio-based composite applications is covered. Several medicinal plants as sources of cellulose, different cellulose extraction methods, as well as the resulting fiber properties, are discussed. Although tremendous progress has been made in developing biocomposites, a lot of research still needs to be carried out.

“…Nowadays, a large number of new bio-based materials have not only been widely found in construction but also in automotive sectors [13]. Especially for contemporary building constructions, however, such materials should be adapted with respect to requirements of comfort and recommended thermal behavior [14].…”

This paper presents a study on the thermal conductivity of fiberboards designed to find a proper board that would be applicable for heat-conditioned building walls. Fibers produced from forestry by-products processing, such as teak (tectona grandis), meranti ( HYPERLINK "https://id.wikipedia.org/w/index.phptitle=Shorea_acuminata&action=edit&redlink=1" \o "Shorea acuminata (halaman belum tersedia)" shorea acuminata), bayur (pterospermum javanicum) and also from agriculture by-products such as rice husk and rice bran, were then used as the materials prepared for the filler. Results showed that thermal conductivity of the board panel with such fibers were 0.0217 kW/m°C, 0.0330 kW/m°C, 0.0287 kW/m°C, 0.0253 kW/m°C and 0.0423 kW/m°C, respectively. Fiberboard panel with teak fiber as filler had the lowest thermal conductivity. It therefore could be used to significantly reduce the rate of heat transfer in such wall.
