Journal ArticleDOI
Physicochemical Characterization of Pectin-Gelatin Biomaterial Formulations for 3D Bioprinting.
Anna Lapomarda,Giorgia Cerqueni,Mike A. Geven,Irene Chiesa,Aurora De Acutis,Matteo De Blasi,Francesca Montemurro,Carmelo De Maria,Monica Mattioli-Belmonte,Giovanni Vozzi +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed to combine pectin and gelatin at different ratios and using (3-glycidyloxypropyl)trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) as a single crosslinking agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of the Adhesion of the Human Gut Microbiota on Electrospun Structures
Francesco Biagini,Marco Calvigioni,Carmelo De Maria,Chiara Magliaro,Francesca Montemurro,Diletta Mazzantini,Francesco Celandroni,Monica Mattioli-Belmonte,Emilia Ghelardi,Giovanni Vozzi +9 more
TL;DR: This work describes how a complex microbial community, i.e., the human gut microbiota, adheres to a surface to form stable biofilms and indicates that the electrospun gelatin structure without the mucin coating was the optimal choice for developing a 3D in vitro model of the human Gut microbiota.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fabrication and Characterization of Gelatin/Carbon Black–Based Scaffolds for Neural Tissue Engineering Applications
TL;DR: The study suggests that the composite structures could be used as a potential candidate for fabrication of scaffolds for neural regeneration with tunable electrical and mechanical properties by varying the CB concentration in a finite range.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Novel Method to Produce Immobilised Biomolecular Concentration Gradients to Study Cell Activities: Design and Modelling
Giovanni Vozzi,Tommaso Lenzi,Francesca Montemurro,C Pardini,Francesca Vaglini,Arti Ahluwalia +5 more
TL;DR: A new gradient generator is developed to enable precise and reproducible studies on the effects of immobilised concentration gradients on cell behaviour and to validate the method, image analysis was performed on glass slides printed with fluorescein isothiocyanate- collagen and FITC-poly-lysine concentrationGradients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design and Validation of an Open-Hardware Print-Head for Bioprinting Application
Carmelo De Maria,Laura M. Ferrari,Francesca Montemurro,Federico Vozzi,Ilenia Guerrazzi,Thomas Boland,Giovanni Vozzi +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, an open-source piezoelectric inkjet print-head optimized for the bioprinting field was designed and built using a low-cost 3D printer.
