Abstract
3D printing first came into existence in the year 1984. Since then, it has found significant use in various fields, including pharmaceutical industries.3D printing is a process of manufacturing products by depositing materials layer by layer. Thus, also called additive manufacturing. Additive manufacturing provides patient-specific formulation, an advantage over conventional drug design methods. 3D printing helps in the designing of complex structures. Since the approval of the first 3D-printed tablet, this field has gained popularity. In this review, various techniques used in 3D printing have been discussed. This article further gives insight into the recent research done on AM technology. There is also some discussion about the formulations made for pediatric patients using AM technology. Different types of drug delivery systems mentioned in this work are oral, vaginal, rectal, oro-mucosal, transdermal, and implant. Further drug testing devices, including 3D-printed organoids and organ-on-chip models, have been discussed. Finally, it gives information about the future direction of this technology.
期刊介绍:
Bioprinting is a broad-spectrum, multidisciplinary journal that covers all aspects of 3D fabrication technology involving biological tissues, organs and cells for medical and biotechnology applications. Topics covered include nanomaterials, biomaterials, scaffolds, 3D printing technology, imaging and CAD/CAM software and hardware, post-printing bioreactor maturation, cell and biological factor patterning, biofabrication, tissue engineering and other applications of 3D bioprinting technology. Bioprinting publishes research reports describing novel results with high clinical significance in all areas of 3D bioprinting research. Bioprinting issues contain a wide variety of review and analysis articles covering topics relevant to 3D bioprinting ranging from basic biological, material and technical advances to pre-clinical and clinical applications of 3D bioprinting.
