The Biofabrication Market, valued at USD 21.0 billion in 2023, is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.3% until 2030, reaching USD 34.8 billion. Bioinks act as the “ink” utilized in bioprinting techniques, comprising living cells along with supportive materials. Hydrogels, which are frequently employed as bioinks, consist of three-dimensional networks made of hydrophilic polymers that replicate the extracellular matrix. Advances in hydrogel formulations, utilizing either natural polymers (such as collagen and alginate) or synthetic polymers, enhance the development of bioinks with diverse mechanical properties tailored for various tissues.

Scaffolds offer structural assistance for tissue development and aid in shaping the formation of intricate structures. These materials must be compatible with biological tissues, provide mechanical integrity, and decompose at a regulated pace as the tissue evolves. Merging various biomaterials to create composite materials enables researchers to utilize the advantages of each individual component. For instance, a composite bioink or scaffold combines natural polymers with nanomaterials to improve mechanical strength or electrical conductivity.

Biofabrication methods are used to produce microscale devices referred to as “organs-on-a-chip. ” For instance, lung-on-a-chip or liver-on-a-chip systems can be utilized to explore respiratory illnesses or liver conditions. Biofabrication facilitates the development of three-dimensional tumor models that closely mimic the in vivo tumor microenvironment. These models are essential for examining cancer development, medication responses, and the interactions between cancer cells and adjacent tissues. By utilizing patient-derived cells, biofabrication supports the formation of patient-specific disease models. This is especially pertinent in precision medicine, where researchers are able to investigate how a specific disease appears in an individual patient’s cells.

Microfabrication techniques play a crucial role in biofabrication, enabling the precise construction of intricate structures at the microscale level. Microscale 3D printing techniques, such as two-photon polymerization and laser-assisted printing, enable the fabrication of complex structures with high resolution at the microscale. These techniques are valuable for creating intricate tissue scaffolds and microfluidic devices. Bioprinting at the microscale involves the precise deposition of biomaterials and cells to create microscale tissue constructs. This is essential for replicating the cellular organization found in native tissues. In biofabrication, microarrays are employed for screening multiple factors simultaneously to optimize cell culture conditions and study cellular responses.
