Longitudinal Stretching for Maturation of Vascular Tissues Using Magnetic Forces

Longitudinal Stretching for Maturation of Vascular Tissues Using Magnetic Forces

Cellular spheroids were studied to determine their use as “bioinks” in the biofabrication of tissue engineered constructs. Specifically, magnetic forces were used to mediate the cyclic longitudinal stretching of tissues composed of Janus magnetic cellular spheroids (JMCSs), as part of a post-process...
