Cornell researchers trust the gut with 3D printed intestine bioreactors
“One of the primary goals of The March Lab at Cornell University, New York, is to create synthetic intestines for use in regenerative medicine and animal-free drug testing. Made from stem cells, the artificial models are theoretically much closer to the real-thing than the alternatives, including computational simulation and single layer cell tests.
Now in the lab’s most recent study, published online October 2017, the team has applied 3D printing to its creation of a realistic intestine, using PolyJet technology to make a microscopic bioreactor…”
