Cover Story: Three-dimensional bioprinting can fabricate precisely controlled tissue constructs using bioinks—specially tailored materials that support the survival of incorporated cells. The properties of bioinks, such as stiffness and porosity, should mimic those found in the desired tissues to support specialized cell types. Here, we assessed the physical and mechanical properties of bioprinted constructs generated from our novel microsphere containing bioink. We measured the elastic moduli of the bioprinted constructs with and without microspheres using a modified Hertz model. The storage and loss modulus, viscosity, and shear rates were also measured along with the physical properties, such as microstructure, porosity, swelling, and biodegradability. View this paper
