Organ Bioprinting: The Next Generation Revolution in Medical Science

The idea about lab grown organs is possibly the end of drug testing on the experimental animals or the human participants. Solution of organ shortage and the desperate ending state of organ donations worldwide can be solved. 3D Bioprinting is a revolutionary mind blowing medical technology emerged in the last few years. It involves the creation of living tissues, like bones, blood vessels, heart or skin with the help of additive manufacturing which is also known as 3D Bioprinting. Unlike other printing technology for the objects, Bioprinting not only needs living cells, they also need environment for nurturing to stay them alive, like food, water and oxygen. Nowadays, these kinds of conditions are provided by microgel, such as gelatin enriched with proteins, vitamins and many other compounds for life sustaining. Furthermore, for creating the fostering conditions and fastest efficient cell growth, scientist plant cells around 3D scaffolds which made of biodegradable polymers or collagen so that organ can able to grow in fully functional living tissue. Bioprinting is time-consuming and difficult also, but by doing proper research all problems can be solved for making organs available in transplantation process. Mass production of the organs for medical purpose likely to solve in the coming next decade. Also it is too much difficult to print the complex organs. Also if the technology available more easily, tissue engineering will become more feasible than entire organ printing. Bionic ear, synthetic skin, bladder or cornea might be the first tissues to be bio printed or completely grown in the lab on demand. These tissues having small numbers of cell types, it can be the first one for fully grown bio printed organs. After this success, bio printing of more complex organs can be done in future.
