The world's first printed electronic components that are fully recyclable

First-of-its-kind pioneering demonstration points to the possibility of a greener future for the electronics sector
The results of growing the printed tissue in CarGrow medium (above) and without it. You can see that the innovative process maintains approximately the original size of the tissue and prevents its drastic contraction. Courtesy of the Technion spokesperson

New technology for growing printed tissues for transplantation

The technological innovation suppresses the typical shrinkage of printed tissues in the period before transplantation

The present and future of the body's replacement organs

Printing replacement organs in a way that will allow them to be implanted in a person's body and to be integrated into his operation
The images show the ability of the satellite cells to adhere and spread (in red) on scaffolds printed in 5D according to a predefined geometry, and were taken a week after they were seeded on the scaffolds. This process was observed both in scaffolds consisting of a combination of alginate with soy protein (top row) and in those consisting of a combination of alginate with pea protein (bottom row). In both cases, pictures were taken at different magnifications (10x - left and middle column; XNUMXx - right column). Prof. Shulamit Levenberg's lab, Technion

Another milestone in the development of cultured meat through printing: growing muscle tissue on plant-based scaffolds

It is a biological ink consisting of a combination of alginate from algae and proteins isolated from the plant - soy or pea. It is injected in the printing process to create protein-enriched scaffolds in different geometries
