abstract = {We present a photocurable, biocompatible, and flexible
silicone-hydrogel hybrid material for stereolithographic
(SLA) printing of biomedical devices. The silicone-hydrogel
polymer is similar to mixtures used for contact lenses. It
is flexible and stretchable with a Young’s modulus of 78
MPa and a maximum elongation at break of $51\%,$ shows a low
degree of swelling $(<4\%$ v/v) in water, and can be bonded
easily to flat glass substrates via a surface-modification
method. The in vitro cytotoxicity of the material is
assessed with a WST-8 cell viability assay using five
different cell lines: HT1080, L929, and Hs27 fibroblasts,
cardiomyocyte-like HL-1 cells, and neuronal-phenotype PC-12
cells. On this account, the silicone-hydrogel polymer is
compared to several other common SLA printing materials used
for cell-culture applications and polydimethylsiloxane
(PDMS). A simple extraction step in water is sufficient for
reaching biocompatibility of the material with respect to
the tested cell types. The oxygen permeability of the
silicone-hydrogel material is investigated and compared to
that of PDMS, Medicalprint clear—a commercial resin for
medical products, and a short-chain hydrogel-based resin. As
a proof of concept, we demonstrate a 3D-printed microfluidic
device with integrated valves and mixers. Furthermore, we
show a printed culture chamber for analyzing signal
propagation in HL-1 cardiomyocyte cell networks. Ca2+
imaging is used to observe the signal propagation through
the cardiac cell layers grown in the microchannels. The
cells are shown to maintain normal electrophysiological
activity within the printed chambers. Overall, the
biocompatible silicone-hydrogel material will be an
advancement for SLA printing in cell-culture and
microfluidic lab-on-a-chip applications.},
