Three-Dimensional Printing of Highly Stretchable and Tough Hydrogels into Complex, Cellularized Structures
A 3D printable and highly stretchable tough hydrogel is developed by combining poly(ethylene glycol) and sodium alginate, which synergize to form a hydrogel tougher than natural cartilage. Encapsulated cells maintain high viability over a 7 d culture period and are highly deformed together with the...
