The use of microcantilever arrays for microbial growth detection provides a rapid and reliable technique for monitoring growth in industrial and clinical applications. Improving the reproducibility and sensitivity of this technique is of great importance. Ink-jet printing has been successfully used in microfabrication and biofabrication due to its high precision; however, only a few microbe-bas...

The rapid development of robotics offers new opportunities for the traditional biofabrication in higher accuracy and controllability, which provides great potentials for the intelligent biomedical engineering. This paper reviews the state of the art of robotics in a widely used biomaterial fabrication process, i.e., electrospinning, including its working principle, main applications, challenges...

Biofabrication by using fungi is an exciting recent interest to develop an eco-friendly production of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) for pharmaceutical applications. This study aimed to synthesize and characterize gold (Au) and silver (Ag) NPs by using Penicillium simplisimum. The fungus was grown in fluid czapek dox broth on shaker at 28 ºC and 200 rpm for ten days. Then the supernatant was...

In article number 2000689, Jenna M. Shapiro, Mike Fraser, and co-workers introduce sonolithography, a flexible accessible fabrication technique harnessing in-air ultrasonic standing waves. Particles droplets are gently manipulated as they migrate through the acoustic pressure field, generating reliably repeatably patterned surfaces. Sonolithography is applicable to wide range of both deposited ...

Biohybrid Robots The next robotics frontier will be led by biohybrids, robots that incorporate living biological cells and tissue, which are addressed Miriam Filippi, Robert K. Katzschmann, co-workers in article number 2108427. Microfluidics substantially contributes to the development of tissue vitro, as microfluidic flow control enables fluid regulation at microscale fine structuring during b...
