Figure 2. Comparison of inkjet-, extrusion- and laser-based bioprinters for cardiac model development.

Figure 2.

The highest cell viability was found in inkjet- and laser-based bioinks, whereas extrusion-based had the lowest. For mechanical properties, the extrusion-based provided more options. For resolution, the best was laser-based, followed by inkjet- and finally extrusion-based. For bioink variety, the best was extrusion-based bioprinters. The most and least user-friendly were extrusion- and laser-based bioprinters, respectively. Finally, the most affordable was extrusion-based, followed by inkjet and laser bioprinters.
