Summary: | The high discrepancies between adverse effects of chemicals in animal and human
have led to the development of alternative in-vitro human tissue models to improve the reliability
and accuracy of toxicology testing. 3D bioprinting technology has emerged as an advanced
platform that facilitates simultaneous and highly-specific patterning of multiple types of cells and
biomaterials, which is lacking in conventional tissue engineering approaches. The goal of this
review is to highlight the achievements in skin bioprinting and present the future outlook on
standardization of in-vitro human tissue models for toxicology testing. |
