• GelMA/AlgMA and GelMA/AlgMA/hydroxyapatite bioinks were successfully synthesised using a one-pot strategy. • The novel bioinks were found to be highly suitable for DLP printing, offering high-resolution capabilities, and significantly expanding the range of available DLP bioinks. • The hydroxyapatite hybrid bioinks displayed superior bone repair abilities compared to pure organic bioinks. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting has revolutionized tissue engineering by enabling precise fabrication with bioinks. Among these techniques, digital light processing (DLP) stands out due to its exceptional resolution, speed, and biocompatibility. However, the progress of DLP is hindered by the limited availability of suitable bioinks. Currently, some studies involve simple mixing of different materials, resulting in bioinks that lack uniformity and photopolymerization characteristics. To address this challenge, we present an innovative one-pot synthesis method for bioinks based on methacrylated gelatin/alginate with hydroxyapatite (HAP). This approach offers significant advantages in terms of efficiency and uniformity. The synthesized bioinks demonstrate excellent printability, stability, and notably enhanced mechanical properties, facilitating optimal in vitro compatibility. Additionally, the HAP-hybrid bioinks printed scaffolds demonstrated impressive bone repair capabilities in vivo compared with pure organic bioinks. In conclusion, the Gel/Alg/HAP bioinks presented herein offer an innovative solution for DLP bioprinting within the field of bone tissue engineering. Their multifaceted advantages help overcome the limitations of restricted bioink choices, pushing forward the boundaries of bioprinting technology and contributing to the progress of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.

Digital light processing technique was applied to manufacture alumina ceramic parts with two types of lattice structure units, i.e. vertex interconnect structure and edge structure. The internal porosity of the unit is 40%. The printed parts were sintered and the grain size is about 1.1 μm. The bending strength of the vertex interconnect structure is much larger than that of the edge structure. Materials genome initiative (MGI) aims to digital design and intelligent manufacture for advanced components. This research shows us an example to achieve this goal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
