Production of scaffolds using 3d printing technology
Scaffolds are 3D matrices capable of functioning as a 3D substrate for the cells and physical support for the development of a new tissue. This is the most commonly used strategy in tissue engineering and relies heavily on materials and production processes. These scaffolds can be produced through various techniques.
The micro-molds were created at Renato Archer Center for Information Technology. First of all, the molds were designed using Rhinoceros software generating a Stereolithographic (STL) file. After that, the micro-molds were materialized by additive manufacturing (AM) or also 3D printing. The STL file was carried out into the 3D printer machine. The A...
