Humans first print out biological organs in space 3D December 10, 2018 Source: Science and Technology Daily Author: Liu Xia According to a recent report from the Russian news agency, Russian medical company Invitro said that Russian astronauts used the 3D bioprinter on the International Space Station to try to print the thyroid of the experimental mouse under zero gravity. The company said that it is even expected to print out human organs in the future to promote the development of medical research. The ground-breaking 3D printing device, called Organaut, was sent to the International Space Station on the 3rd with the "Expedition 58" mission of the "Alliance MS-11" spacecraft. The printer was built by Invitro's subsidiary "3D Bioprinting Solutions". Invitro then received a set of photos from the International Space Station that showed how the mouse thyroid was printed. According to reports, the Russian astronaut Konoenko on the space station began the first time in human history to print biological organs in space at 17 o'clock on the 4th Moscow time (22 o'clock on the 4th Beijing time). The results of the relevant experiments will return to Earth later in December and will be announced in February 2019. Russia has also become the first country in the world to print out biological organs in space. Invitro said that in a zero-gravity environment, the printed organs and tissues mature faster and more efficiently than on Earth, and the latest research may pave the way for printing human organs on the International Space Station. When asked if the human organs will soon be 3D printed on the International Space Station, Invitro CEO Alexander Ostrovsky said: "Nothing is impossible, the only problem is the cost. Currently we Committed to new bioprinting." According to reports, the United States plans to send bio-printers to the International Space Station in the spring of 2019. 8 Inch Face Access Control,8-Inch Touch Screen Access Control Device,8 Inch Face Recognition Attendance Access Control,Face Recognition Attendance Access System Shenzhen Bio Technology Co., Ltd , https://www.huifantech.com
