Application

INVIVO-GEL VEGF bioink is specifically developed and optimized for 3D bioprinting applications. The INVIVO-GEL VEGF bioink kit includes optimally formulated VEGF mimetic peptide conjugated gelatin-based hydrogel complex packed in syringe for easy dispensing. The kit also includes Gel-linker, which reinforces mechanical stability. A transparent hydrogel forms when contents are properly mixed and exposed to UV light. This bioink is capable of generating mechanically stable 3D structures that can be maintained for days in the culture environment. The tissue constructs functionalized with VEGF peptide mimics could potentially induce guided endothelial cell growth for promoting vascularization.
