i'm exxon dw, ken's free d printed organ save lives. i've been visible in the next hour with mobiles headlines, the smiles. me to the news. the

right now hundreds of thousands of people around the world. a waiting for organ transplants like 4 year old, a v green who's been waiting for a new cock for a year will smart technology revolutionize organ transplants. and all 3 d printed organs anywhere close to becoming the norm. find out on shift is a hot made from human cells using ice 3 d printer scientists, intel of they've already made this breakthrough back in 2019. the printed hot couldn't be yet, but it was assigned the researches were on the right path. the key here is printing using living cells, so called by printing type d printing. well, the other 23 d printing, also known as additive manufacturing,

has been in use an industry and for a number of years up yet, it basically means building complex objects layer by layer hiding young and a few years ago. and this trend also made its way into the field of biomedicine put us in all the been equaled up in the it enables those to print the layers of living materials and that's my logical material. teeth which are very complex material properties, nice thing. all fixed. why as opposed to the whole phone cutting, the good one, so we now have new possibilities and file medicine complaint can hopefully print complex oregon structures in the future using 3 d bio printing. all the bio printing just for the bar printing have system. so science is can actually print organs using living cells. that's pretty incredible. in 2022, the 1st 3 d printed it was transplanted into a volunteer in the united states. but that was the last we heard. we reached out to the company 3 day by a therapeutic several times for an update on the current clinical trial without any

luck, but this much is clear the race to manufacture functioning organs using 3 d printer has been going on for years. first attempts to fly printing artificial organs were made over 2 decades ago. one of the trail blazes is us surgeon, dr. anthony atalla. in 2011 a 3 day printed accuse me. thus the organ is measured using m r. i scanned the daughters then use to create a 3 day model which has been sent to the printer. the printer manufacturer has the model layout by layoff, from living cells, all as shown here from plus the race such as loading and trent university develop basically the using a 3 d printer in 2021. it looks deceptively real, but it's actually made of synthetic materials. it's supposed to help train doctors to recognize live at cancer. in 2020 to 3 day systems and united therapeutics presented

a 3 day printed long structure. this synthetic creation should help regulate gas exchange. the way healthy lungs do, animal testing should offer insight into how it functions. it will probably still take some time before 3 d printed organs will actually be able to replace traditional organ donations. but this technology is already proving to be very useful in medical research today. like this 3 d printed book bought a card made from synthetic material. race, such as at the massachusetts institute of technology in the united states have developed a road, bought a car using a 3 d printer. the replica is supposed to emulate the functions of a patient's individual heart researches 1st create a 3 dimensional computer model using data from the patients hot. it's made up of soft, flexible, synthetic materials. the artificial heart is wrapped in slaves that mimic a hot date. h one is controlled separately to ensure that it pumps realistically,

this way the rug bought a car can mirror a hot date of the patient. researches one to hone in on how the patients hot use contracting. robotics is not meant to be transplanted. instead, it's supposed to help does better understand the hot conditions of individual patients. and therefore, i pinpoint the best treatment very helpful for treating people with hot conditions, but not a solution for patients waiting for an actual hot transplant. still 3 day by printing can be deployed in other ways. lots of patients who need a bypass due to blocked vessels, researches in northern germany, a testing out there. so i did investigate with surgeon dr. ivan benz on his team of developing a new procedure speaking and fees isn't in artificial vessels, are in a georgia dream and surgery from the eligible company. and one of the

cardiovascular surgeons, you and have typically end up in a situation where you're caring for a patient, but don't have any suitable material to use for to bypass. and, for example, i must, i'm for a heart bypass or a bypass and the leg. and researchers have been working for many decades now. i'm creating bio artificial vessels in the line. so standing in the ball, it would enable us to help perform a bypassing patients that don't have the necessary bodily material. i expect them to bypass and meet with the research team. so idea, a princess single tenuously presses to liquids to create a flexible, to made of bio materials that's roughly 30 centimeters long. one of these liquids is so called via when it's a positive organic. think that's enriched with even investigating cells. it's guys, this is an elgin, a material made from brown out not drawing back to the cell generates a step. so as country the bind well to it. that's why we have peptides which are

small pieces of proteins that can be found in the human body like college and you have a sounds good now bind to these peptides cubic even the peptides can also send signals to the sales forces so that they feel comfortable and can survive and reproduce and bianca after and initial phase using standard straight printers. the team is now switching to a robot with a specially developed printed one chain. the in the print head contains the boiling . while the other contains calcium, fluoride stabilizes the bypass graft process, elective, i'm this may look relatively simple, but it actually requires fine shooting a lot of different parameters and power allows the i'd also don't have one challenges. that bio into does not have no technic properties. i mean, in other words, it behaves differently from typical liquids becomes more solid to under pressure. eva um, by just means we need to equip the printed both resistors here to ensure a uniform flow of the by a we will genus and who move in flows. the few instead of allies,

it's all incredibly delicate and precise work. so it's no surprise that the researches have carried out countless test prints. one challenge, the entire structure needs to have a consistent thickness for this evening. but if you take a look at this bypass and you can see how much it sends out and the size length of yes and on the other 2 sides, you can see that it's quite sick on the inside, right? so it won't hold up on those are the more symmetric, the structure, the stronger the circular structure, the more stable it will ultimately be. what is this? that'd be the best of the artificial bypass cross supposed to be as uniform as possible so that they can function inside the patient's a decades of the printing. the new structures must mature in a nutrients solution at 37 degrees. for a few days, we usually print type room temperature. that's where this is cindy,

but keeping the cells at room temperature for a long time can be detrimental to the cells nathan selling lessons. so we print using this substance, we on the bike and then we place them in san to bio reactive, where the culture is kept at $37.00 degrees. the item is for as many cells to survive the printing process as possible. if everything is going smoothly, numerous green cells become visible under the microscope. in the next lab test phase, bypass graft a being tested in animals. clearly a controversial ethical issue, but the scientists say it's necessary. and on that topic, 3 d printing with living cells could sleep even help to replace animal testing. for example, when developing new drugs, pharmaceutical labs could use so called organ on a chip models. these devices can emulate how human organs function thanks to by a chips the need for animal testing could soon be reduced. the cells on so called organ on a chip systems biologically,

mimic human organs. when they come into contact with active agents. instead of animal testing, researches are increasingly using these kinds of mini labs. it helps them to sun, if substances toxic to the human body or whether they could work as medications. the system basically consists of a microscope slide, at least one cell culture and micro channels. the membrane works as a carrier for the cell culture, while the micro channels supplied with f, nutrients and active agent pot live. uh, excuse me, cells can be grown onto the chip or printed on the slide. using boiling sensors allowed to sign system monitor the condition of the cells home the chip. many of the bar trees have also started using coaches from multiple organs on the same chip, reducing the number of tests. today, there are even chips with complex 3 dimensional cell structures. which allows for more precise testing. 3 d printing using living cells,

certainly books very promising. of course it would be even better if we could print cells and organs exactly where they needed inside the human body. and scientists are already making big strides. check it out. this is an experimental meaning 3 d bias for tool could directly print by material until opens and one day it could be deployed inside the human body. we can directly deliver multiple and they uh, they only table inside the main body and quite the coloring. melvin $10.00 a they have to make well material outside of the body and then it'll go to the lady but the material they have to be quite when it says read a bunch and ready to decline as also fiction. and look last similar to an endo scope. the soft and flexible robeteck is inserted into the body either through the mouth and a small, a small skin incision using bio ink. the device can print by material on to organs

and tissues. for example, to have had an oft or an injury. so this is a larger version of our 3 default printer. we have. this is basically use you to, to live up on materials to the end side or off of the surgery to facilitate to the healing process. we have a camera located at the tip for the visualization, as we can see right here. and we have one channel at the top, 2 for the delivery of the materials. and after the fact, we have the control us to control the bending of the printer. and it doesn't lead print. it can also make any decisions and spray water to clean the wounds after an operation in the future. this medical tool could be use for different types of surgeries, including the removal of cancer risk. janice, i basically did defy,

can utilize on one set of co device. they can both form the and course a big safeco for seizure. and therefore, we can do more to sit and tie up the kinds of timble inside the body, like actually on the call on kind of. so there is so much of groundbreaking research going on right now. but what people who are waiting for an organ transplant need the most is more open donors. would you're doing night your organs, or do you say 3 d printed organs as the way of the future? let us know. and so you next on the design unique found

the models of the b and w 3 series range segments on d w. they kicked in the door at 6 o'clock. my child was screaming, which isn't, don't take mommy. you'll be set to my son, your mom, you're not coming back over the ukrainian city of coupon schools under russian occupation for 6 months. everyone can endure the fear. we felt every day when russia comes in 35 minutes on d w, the, the people have to say

that's why we listen. because every weekend on d w, the course, the bmw 3 series appear driving pleasure for every one. freedom. that's what it means for me. a global phenomenon made in germany. once you stop driving it, you get a big test.
