Abstract

Bio-electrospraying and aerodynamically assisted bio-jetting are rapidly evolving approaches for directly handling living cells and organisms. In this article we demonstrate how these technologies now elucidated as being safe for handling living cells and organisms can be explored not only for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine but also in biology for single cell and organism diagnostics.
