Abstract
Provided is a method for manufacturing cell-containing blocks having steps of: preparing an standardized size mold by 3D printing (three dimensional printing) using a biocompatible elastic material; injecting a thermosensitive colloid into the mold to form a thermosensitive mold; injecting a hydrogel containing cells in to the thermosensitive mold and curing the hydrogel containing cells to form the cell-containing blocks; separating the thermosensitive mold and the cell-containing blocks at a temperature higher than a solidifying point of the thermosensitive colloid. Also provided are method for assembling the cell-containing blocks in a target configuration by using an assembling mold defining the target configuration and made of a thermoreversible material.
