Abstract This study investigated incorporating fish scale powder (FSP) as a bio‐filler into polylactic acid (PLA) raw material for polymeric 3D printing. The PLA/FSP filaments were evaluated various properties (tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation, diameter deviation, thermogravimetric analysis, surface roughness, and SEM analysis) at different compositions (PLA, PLA/FSP10, PLA/FSP20, PLA/FSP30 wt%). results revealed that PLA reinforced with 20 wt% FSP achieved the highest modulus is 44.49 MPa 2.83 GPa. neat 10 exhibited minor deviations of +0.002 −0.002. roughness filament notably higher, registering value 1.459 μm. finding highlights importance considering characteristics in selection printing applications. microscopic analysis confirmed uniform distribution particles composition filaments. These suggest (20 wt%) an optimal feedstock printing, especially developing biomaterials like bio‐scaffolds.

Biofilm-associated wound infections in diabetic and immunocompromised patients are an increasing threat due to rising antibiotic resistance. Various models have been used screen for efficient antiinfection treatments. However, results from vitro do not always match vivo results, this represents a bottleneck development of new infection In study, static 2-D microtiter plate-based biofilm model was tested growing clinically relevant Staphylococcus aureus isolates various operating conditions, seeking identify optimal setup that would yield physiologically results. Specifically, the variables included wound-mimicking growth media, precoating surface with different proteins, multiwell plates properties, effect bacterial pre-attachment step. Our indicated protein is key factor supporting growth. The same isolate responded significant differences formation media. Biofilm dispersal, as proxy effectiveness antibiofilm treatments, also investigated response proteinase K. dispersal K showed contingent upon specific isolate, CCUG 35571 ATCC 6538 showing considerable responses. conclusion, study observed higher when collagen type I applied but being dependent on media selected. That why we recommend use simulated fluid or perform similar studies. Furthermore, suggested important could affect within such models, since induced precoated plates.
