Clarkson University scientists develop 3D printed wearable biosensors for sun burn protection - 3D Printing Industry

Researchers from the New York-based Clarkson University have developed a custom bioink and deployed it to create a range of skin-compatible 3D printed biosensors.

Interesting to see how this would be applied mainstream, particularly thinking about application to fabrics or directly to the skin!


Researchers from the New York-based Clarkson University have developed a custom bioink and deployed it to create a range of skin-compatible 3D printed biosensors. The team’s novel ink design includes titanium nanoparticles that once exposed to UV radiation, initiate a photocatalytic reaction with colored dyes, causing the gel to change color. Utilizing their new mixture, …
