Abstract
Hydrogels have emerged as a type of biomaterial with excellent biocompatibility, and they are currently frequently used as cell-laden bioprinting materials. Cellular inkjet printing, laser-assisted bioprinting, stereolithography, and extrusion-based printing have all been
investigated as bioprinting technologies. So far, little attention has been paid to various printing process factors and the correlations between the parameters and printing fidelity. Many factors, such as hydrogel fusion during printing, gravity-induced distortion, and nonuniform extrusion due to changes in printing speed, will have a significant impact on printing resolution during the extrusion-based bioprinting process. It lacks research studies that comprehensively discuss biomaterial printability or the correlations between printing
quality/fidelity and process parameters.
