Currently developing on a large scale, the opportunities for 3D printing represent more and more perspective solutions in the area of tissue engineering and personalized medicine. Due to their ability to reproduce the natural extracellular matrix and unique properties, hydrogels are popularly used materials to produce bioinks designated for 3D printing. Today, solutions based on sodium alginate and gelatin are frequently used compositions for this purpose. The high viability of the cells incorporated into bioink is the key parameter determining the application opportunities of printed structures. The parameters of the process used for the preparation of hydrogel compositions may have a direct impact on the viability of the cells incorporated within the printed structure. This study aims to develop a protocol for the preparation of hydrogel materials based on alginate and gelatin, providing the highest viability of the model osteoblast-like cell line Saos-2 incorporated directly into the bioink before the 3D bioprinting process. In the scope of this study, the analyzed process parameters of the preparation of the hydrogel bioinks are the method of combination of a polymer solution with biological material, the applied concentration, the cross-linking solution, and also the waiting time of the prepared hydrogel bioink for the 3D printing process. A key aspect of the study is the evaluation of the influence of 3D printing on changes in the survival rate of biological material directly after the manufacturing process and after individual incubation periods of the printouts in conditions reflecting the body’s environment.

In vitro tissue model systems have attracted considerable attention in drug discovery owing to their ability to facilitate identification of promising compounds in the near-physiological environment during drug development. Additive manufacturing helps in mimicking com-plex geometries including the microarchitecture of the body tissues. Exploiting this emerg-ing technology, the present study demonstrates a simple and inexpensive approach for the fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) in vitro tissue models using a custom-designed automated bioprinting system. The bioink mixture comprised of a novel optimized compo-sition of widely known biomaterials including gelatin, alginate and hydrolyzed type-1 collagen to embed and print the C2C12 myoblast cells. The structural stability and integrity of the cells-laden constructs were found to be significantly consistent for more than 14 days in culture. Rheological and mechanical properties of the bioink blend were characterized to assess its efficacy for the fabrication of cells-laden tissue constructs. Scanning electron micrographs were acquired to analyze porosity of the scaffold for cellular growth and proliferation. The viability of cells embedded within the hydrogel was >80%, 3 h post-printing. We anticipate that the fabricated tissues will serve as an alternative model for in vitro toxicological and drug response studies.
