Construction of Cardiac Tissue Rings Using a Magnetic Tissue Fabrication Technique

Construction of Cardiac Tissue Rings Using a Magnetic Tissue Fabrication Technique

Here we applied a magnetic force-based tissue engineering technique to cardiac tissue fabrication. A mixture of extracellular matrix precursor and cardiomyocytes labeled with magnetic nanoparticles was added into a well containing a central polycarbonate cylinder. With the use of a magnet, the cells...
