Methods: Hydrochlorothiazide-loaded polyvinyl alcohol filaments were prepared by hot melt extrusion. Caplets printed in hexagonal (HexCap), diamond infill (DiaCap) in three different sizes using fused deposition modeling 3D printer and evaluated for hardness, disintegration and dissolution. Results: DiaCaps exhibited higher hardness than HexCaps. Disintegration time for HexCaps was <20 mins. while DiaCaps took 25–40 mins. DiaCaps showed 20–30% lower release at all time points compared with HexCaps. Conclusion: Although composition, processing parameters were same, mere change in printing pattern alters disintegration and dissolution. Findings of this study can be invaluable in developing patient-tailored medicines.","PeriodicalId":73578,"journal":{"name":"Journal of 3D printing in medicine","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89766810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The decellularized extracellular matrix bioinks proved to be a potential option for functional tissue development in vivo and as an alternative to chemically cross-linked bioinks. However, certain limitations such as printability and limited mechanical strength need to be addressed for enhancing their widespread applications.
