Bacterial Extracellular Matrix Produces a 3D-Printable Hydrogel

A bioRxiv preprint describes a hydrogel made from the extracellular matrix produced by Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1. The material can be modified for light-triggered crosslinking and is reported as porous, injectable, cytocompatible and suitable for 3D bioprinting.
