dc.description.abstractThree-dimensional printing/additive manufacturing (3DP/AM) for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TE/RM) applications is a multifaceted research area encompassing biology, material science, engineering, and the clinical sciences. Although being quite mature as a research area, only a handful of clinical cases have been reported and even fewer commercial products have made it to the market. The regulatory pathway and costs associated with the introduction of bioresorbable materials for TE/RM have proven difficult to overcome, but greater access to 3DP/AM has spurred interest in the processing and availability of existing and new bioresorbable materials. For this purpose, herein, we introduce a series of medical-grade filaments for fused deposition modelling/fused filament fabrication (FDM/FFF) based on established and Federal Drug Administration (FDA)-approved polymers. Manufacturability, mechanical characterization, and accelerated degradation studies have been conducted to evaluate the suitability of each material for TE/RM applications. The comparative data serves to introduce these materials, as well as a benchmark to evaluate their potential in hard and soft tissue engineering from a physicochemical perspective.
