We investigated a portable micro-nanochannel biosensor 3D-printed liver microtissues for rapid and sensitive deoxynivalenol (DON) detection. The screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was modified with nanoporous anodic aluminum oxide (AAO), gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and cytochrome C oxidase (COx) to enhance sensor performance. Gelatin methacrylate hydrogel, combined with hepatocellular carcinoma cells, formed the bioink for 3D printing. Liver microtissues were prepared through standardized and high-throughput techniques via bio-3D printing technology. These microtissues were immobilized onto modified electrodes to fabricate liver microtissue sensors. The peak current of this biosensor was positively correlated with DON concentration, as determined by cyclic voltammetry (CV), within a linear detection range of 2∼40 μg/mL. The standard curve equation is denoted by I CV(μA) = = 18.76956 + 0.03107C DON(μg/mL) , with a correlation coefficient R 2 was 0.99471(n=3). A minimum detection limit of 1.229 μg/mL was calculated from the formula, indicating the successful construction of a portable micro-nanochannel bio-3D printed liver microtissue biosensor. It provides innovative ideas for developing rapid and convenient instrumentation to detect mycotoxin hazards after grain production. It also holds significant potential for application in the prediction and assessment of post-production quality changes in grain.

Injuries to the skin are common in daily life, and a certain type or size of defect is not easily restored using conventional dressings or naturally. The repair of these defects requires restoration of function in regenerated tissues. In this study, a tissue engineered skin was designed and fabricated using a bio-3D printing system. Polycaprolactone and bacterial cellulose comprised the scaffold, due to their excellent biocompatibility and multifunctionality. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) were seeded onto the scaffold to functionalize it as an artificial skin. The finished artificial skin had mechanical properties similar to that of natural skin, and its fibrous structure providing a unique micro-environment that could regulate the paracrine function of the Ad-MSCs. This effect could be greatly increased by changes in the characteristics of the biomaterials. The artificial skin exhibited high biological activity, strong induction of cell recruitment, migration, growth and up-regulation of gene expression of relevant factors, resulting in excellent wound healing characteristics. This study clarified novel design aspects of cell-material interactions in which the topographical characteristics of materials can be further developed to establish cell signaling or communication networks that take advantage of the paracrine actions of Ad-MSCs to promote specific tissue regeneration or repair characteristics.
