Abstract
Cell printing is an emerging technology for engineering complex 3D tissue/organ structures. In this study, the proliferation of primary rat bladder smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in printed cell-laden collagen droplets was quantified. The results showed that the bioprinting system is capable of printing viable cells, while keeping their proliferation ability in a 3D collagen matrix.
