Gelatin Methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogels have the innate capability of cell compatibly, but performs poorly in printability when used as an ink in bio printing. In the interest of fabricating a hydrogel to be used in tissue engineering, Gelatin Methacrylate is often combined with synthetic or natural...
