Minimal-Invasive 3D Laser Printing of Microimplants in Organismo.

ABSTRACT: Multi-photon 3D laser printing has gathered much attention in recent years as a means of manufacturing biocompatible scaffolds that can modify and guide cellular behavior in vitro. However, in vivo tissue engineering efforts have been limited so far to the implantation of beforehand 3D printed biocompatible scaffolds and in vivo bioprinting of tissue constructs from bioinks containing cells, biomolecules, and printable hydrogel formulations. Thus, a comprehensive 3D laser printing platform for in vivo and in situ manufacturing of microimplants raised from synthetic polymer-based inks is currently missing. Here, a platform for minimal-invasive manufacturing of microimplants directly in the organism is presented by one-photon photopolymerization and multi-photon 3D laser printing. Employing
