Bacteria used to create bone-like 3D-printed composite material
Bacteria used to create bone-like 3D-printed composite material,Calcium carbonate is an impressive material, in that it combines strength, light weight and porosity. Scientists have devised a new bacteria-based method of 3D-printing the substance, for uses such as bone repair and coral reef restoration.
