Advantages and Disadvantages of the Different 3D Bioprinting Methods.

Materials Application	Printer Style	Advantages	Disadvantages
Extrusion-based	Bioplotting	wide range of bioinks	slow printing process
	Fusion deposition modelling	wide range of bioinks	limited resolution only hydrogels slow
Laser-assisted	Stereolithography	high resolution possible	UV damage to cells small range of bioinks
Droplet-based	Inkjet	gentle to printed cells fast printing affordable	limitations of cell density low resolution
