Bioprinting is a rapidly emerging technology with the potential to transform the biomedical sector. Here, we discuss how a range of bacterial polysaccharides with antibiofilm and antibacterial activity could be used to augment current bioink formulations to improve their biocompatibility and tackle the spread of antibiotic-resistant infections.
生物打印是一项迅速发展的技术,具有改变生物医学领域的潜力。在这里,我们讨论了一系列具有抗生物膜和抗菌活性的细菌多糖,可用于增强当前生物墨水配方,以提高其生物相容性并解决抗生素耐药性感染的传播问题。
