description | The use of 3D printing began to diffuse in the pharmaceutical field in recent times, since 2015, with the approval of the first 3D printed drug from the FDA. The most used materials in association with this technique in this specific scope are hydrogels, already used widely in tissue engineering to produce scaffolds used in the realization of synthetic tissues. The aim of this project was to study the influence of different pH conditions on the release of a therapeutic molecule from a Carrageenan-k combined with alginate or xanthan gum hydrogel with a high level of biocompatibility and enough mechanical resistance to be used as printing material for a 3D bioprinter. The addition of biologically active supplements without affecting the model of the 3D printing structure of the biocompatible polymers was achieved by adopting the extrusion at moderately low temperatures. This study aimed to produce the necessary percentage of hydrogels which is responsible for the release of active drugs which respect to the pH of the system. In this case, the chosen curcumin drug which exhibits active release in the pH of the small intestine is a pH value of 6. |
