The development of continuous bioprocesses—which require cell retention systems in order to enable longer cultivation durations—is a primary focus in the field of modern process development. The flow environment of ...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing techniques are continuously evolving, thus their application fields are also growing very fast. The applications discussed here highlight the use of rapid prototyping in a dedicated biotechnology ...

Die additive Fertigung (3D-Druck) wurde in den frühen 1980er Jahren entwickelt und gewann seitdem durch stetige Verbesserungen an Bedeutung. Gebiete wie die Biotechnologie, die Pharma- und die Chemieindustrie, wo besonders ...

Cells are very sensitive to their direct environment - they place high demands, for example, on ambient culture medium, adjacent cell types, and the properties of surrounding material parts. As a result, mechanical and ...

Three-dimensional (3D)-bioprinting enables scientists to mimic in vivo micro-environments and to perform in vitro cell experiments under more physiological conditions than is possible with conventional two-dimensional (2D) ...

Ein dreidimensionales Objekt als eine Summe von zweidimensionalen Schichten zu begreifen, ist die zentrale Idee der additiven Fertigungstechniken, die auch unter dem Ausdruck 3D-Druck bekannt sind. Besondere Bedeutung hat ...

Die additive Fertigung, auch bekannt unter der Bezeichnung „3D-Druck“, hat sich längst in etlichen Herstellungsbereichen als vielfältig einsetzbares, nützliches Werkzeug bewährt. Die schnelle Fertigung selbst komplexer ...

The implementation of digital tools into science education is a major demand of various stakeholders, such as teachers, schools and ministries of education. However, teaching innovations and the introduction of new competences ...

Many properties in both healthy and pathological tissues are highly influenced by the mechanical properties of the extracellular matrix. Stiffness gradient hydrogels are frequently used for exploring these complex relationships ...

Additive manufacturing (3D printing) enables the fabrication of highly customized and complex devices and is therefore increasingly used in the field of life sciences and biotechnology. However, the application of 3D-printed ...
