Critical review on additive manufacturing based biomedical and biosensors application

Abstract

The domains of biomedical engineering and biosensors have been revolutionized by additive manufacturing, commonly referred to as 3D printing. This study delves into the various ways additive printing has been used in these fields, showcasing its role in creating biosensor parts, implants, tissue engineering scaffolds, and medical equipment. The production of typical prosthetics and implants has been revolutionized by additive manufacturing. It allows for the manufacture of complicated geometries with a high degree of precision and personalization, which in turn improves clinical results and patient care. Additionally, innovative diagnostic tools have been developed through the combination of biosensor technologies with additive manufacturing. These tools can identify infections, physiological factors, and biomarkers with a level of sensitivity and specificity that has never been seen before. This review discusses the present and prospects of additive manufacturing for biomedical and biosensor applications, as well as the state-of-the-art techniques and materials used in this sector. It also analyzes the ongoing obstacles in this area. Additive manufacturing has enormous potential to transform bio sensing technology and healthcare delivery, opening the door to novel approaches to difficult medical problems.
