    Production of 3D-Printed Tympanic Membrane Scaffolds as a Tissue Engineering Application
    (Springer, 2020) ŞAHİN, ALİ; Ilhan E., Ulag S., Sahin A., Ekren N., Kilic O., Oktar F.N., Gunduz O.
    In recent years, scaffolds produced in 3D printing technology have become more widespread tool due to providing more advantages than traditional methods in tissue engineering applications. In this research, it was aimed to produce patches for the treatment of tympanic membrane perforations which caused significant hearing loss by using 3D printing method. Polylactic acid (PLA) scaffolds with Chitosan (CS) added in various ratios were prepared for artificial eardrum patches. Different amounts of CS added to PLA to obtain more biocompatible scaffolds. The created patches were designed by mimicking the thickness of the natural tympanic membrane thanks to the precision provided by the 3D printed method. The produced scaffolds were analyzed separately for physical, chemical, morphological, mechanical and biocompatibility properties. Human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAD-MSCs) were used for cell culture study to analyze the biocompatibility properties. 15 wt% PLA was chosen as the control group. Scaffold containing 3 wt% CS demonstrated significantly superior and favorable features in printing quality. The study continued with these two scaffolds (15PLA and 15PLA/3CS). This study showed that PLA and PLA/CS 3D printed scaffolds are a potential application for repairing tympanic membrane perforation. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.

    3D printing of chitosan/ poly(vinyl alcohol) hydrogel containing synthesized hydroxyapatite scaffolds for hard-tissue engineering
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2019) KARTAL, İLYAS; Ergul, Necdet Mekki; Unal, Semra; Kartal, Ilyas; Kalkandelen, Cevriye; Ekren, Nazmi; Kilic, Osman; Chi-Chang, Lin; Gunduz, Oguzhan
    In recent years, 3D printed scaffolds becoming a widespread tool, which supports the repair mechanism of natural tissues. In order to support this knowledge, we used 3D printing methods to fabricated Chitosan (CH)/poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA)-based scaffolds contains with a various ratio of hydroxyapatite (HA) (2.5, 5, 10, and 15 wt%). These composited scaffolds were further characterized for their chemical, morphological, mechanical, and biocompatibility properties. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), swelling test, and compressive strength test were performed to reveal structural, mechanical and chemical characteristics of scaffolds. Among others, 15 wt% HA contained group demonstrated significantly superior and beneficial features in printing quality. Also, the results reveal that scaffolds have similar elastic modulus to natural bone. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) protein was added to the most successful mechanically produced sample. As a result, it was shown that Chitosan/PVA/HA (15 wt%) with BMP-2 tissue scaffold could form a three-dimensional natural extracellular scaffold suitable for human mesenchymal stem cells. Altogether, these results show that hydroxyapatite added scaffolds produced may be a promising approach for bone tissue engineering applications.
