| Pluronic F127/diacrylated Pluronic F127 (PF17/AC3) | 0.30 | 151 | No other printable or non-printable formulations. | Muller et al. [17] |
| 25 wt% poloxamer 407 | 0.25 | 227 | 15, 20, and 30 wt% formulations were not printable. | Paxton et al. [21] |
| 8% alginate/1% CaCl2 | 0.25 | 166 | No other alginate/CaCl2 formulations were tested. | Paxton et al. [21] |
| 3–10% methacrylated gelatin/ 0–0.5% gellan gum (gelMA/gellan) | 0.34 | 0.13–48.2 | 3/0.5%, 10/0%, and 10/0.5% gelMA/gellan were all printable. 3/0.2% was not printable, but had a yield stress of 0.22 Pa. |
Mouser et al. [18] |
| 20–30% polaxamer/1–4% poly(ethylene glycol) (px/PEG) | 0.34 | ~125 to 425 | All formulations were printable. | Ribeiro et al. [19] |
| 2.5% kappa-carrageenan/4–6% nanosilicates (κCA/nSi) | 0.34 | 4.2–33 | Pure κCA had the highest yield stress and was not printable. At least 4% nSi were needed for printability. | Wilson et al. [22] |
