3D printed living microbes

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory scientists  have developed a technique for 3D printing living microbes in controlled patterns. The technique uses light and bacteria-infused resin to produce 3D-patterned microbes. Artificial  biofilms resembling the thin layers of  real world microbial communities were printed. The research team suspended the bacteria in photosensitive bio-resins and “trapped” the microbes in ...
