Wake Forest Researchers Swap Skin Grafts for Cell Spraying
Get out your inkjet printers, they have a new use!
From our friends at Slashdot, ""Inspired by a standard office inkjet printer, US researchers have rigged up a device that can spray skin cells directly onto burn victims, quickly protecting and healing their wounds as an alternative to skin grafts. ... Tests on mice showed the spray system, called bioprinting, could heal wounds quickly and safely, the researchers reported at the Translational Regenerative Medicine Forum."
