Printable Self-Assembled Peptide Bio-Inks: Promising Future Applications in Nanomedicine by
In the current era of research and development, nanotechnology and additive manufacturing play a key role in the industry as well as in the healthcare applications. In order to explore medicinal applications, researchers focus on the design and synthesis of biocompatible nanoparticles and nanomaterials. Molecular self-assembly is a powerful approach for the fabrication of supramolecular functional materials. Self-assembly offers the integration of nanotechnology with the additive manufacturing for the fabrication of three dimensional (3D) printed objects. The cross-linked peptide hydrogels are gaining attention as potential bioink for the 3D bio-fabrication. The current article focuses on the scope of the printable peptide containing hydrogels as bio-ink in the fields of nanomedicine, drug delivery and tissue engineering.
