Scintica and Poietis announce exclusive partnership for the distribution of its preclinical Next Generation Bioprinting System

 

[February 16, 2021] Scintica Instrumentation Inc. is excited to announce its exclusive distribution agreement with Poietis, manufacturer of the New Generation Bioprinting (NGB) system designed for translational research and regenerative medicine applications.

Based on its expertise in bioprinting technologies and high-resolution laser bioprinting, Poietis developed the NGB multimodal bioprinting platform (Next Generation Bioprinting). NGB platform aims to give tissue engineers and researchers greater freedom in the choice of biomaterials and hydrogels and greater versatility in their research and development.

The NGB-R is a multimodal, 4D bioprinting system developed and designed specifically for tissue engineers, researchers, and biologists. Combining laser-assisted, micro-valve, and extrusion bioprinting, the NGB-R enables true versatility of bioprinting (from cells to spheroids) and offers the possibility of using a large number of biomaterials and hydrogels. The NGB-R also includes an embedded microscope for in-line cell printing monitoring and relies on a complete software suite for managing bioprinting protocols, from biological CAD to data analysis of manufacturing.

Blair Poetschke, President of Scintica Instrumentation, says, “our in-house team of scientists and experts are eager to be able to introduce this exciting technology to our customers to develop tissue engineering therapies and translate that to patients”.

“We are very enthusiastic about this partnership as this new distribution channel will make it much easier for North American customers to access the NGB-R technology, especially for those eager to incorporate laser-assisted bioprinting to their protocols” says Antoine Jacquot, Sales Manager at Poietis. “Scintica Instrumentation was the obvious choice for us. The company has solid references in the field along with a fantastic team of scientists with a deep understanding of our technology” comments Bruno Brisson, Co-Founder & CBO at Poietis.
