Researchers develop a technique to produce transplantable livers in the laboratory
Publicado em 06 abril 2021
An extracellular matrix obtained by controlled decellularization is used to reconstruct the liver with human-like characteristics
Researchers at the Human Genome and Stem Cell Research Center (HUG-CELL), hosted by the University of São Paulo’s Institute of Biosciences (IB-USP) in Brazil, have developed a technique to reconstruct and produce livers in the laboratory.
The proof-of-concept study was conducted with rat livers. In the next stage of their research, the scientists will [...]

Researchers Create Ingredients to Produce Food by 3D Printing
Publicado em 05 dezembro 2020Food engineers in Brazil and France developed gels based on modified starch for use as “ink” to make foods and novel materials by additive manufacturing. It is already possible to produce food with a 3D printer, potentially delivering products that suit consumer preferences regarding taste, texture, cost, convenience, and nutrition. In the near future, it will be possible to produce food with personalized shapes, textures, flavors, and colors considered attractive and healthy for [...]ver notícia
