Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) biocompatible, degradable soft tissue implant, comprising a bioprinted composite scaffold, the composite scaffold comprising a recombinant human collagen (rhCollagen) and a biocompatible synthetic polymer and features: a porous wall; an inner cavity at least partially enclosed within the porous wall; and at least one injection port that connects the inner cavity with an outer most surface of the scaffold, wherein the injection port has an opening sized to permit insertion of an injection device through the port, processes of preparing same and uses thereof in soft tissue reconstruction are provided. Injectable matrices for use in soft tissue reconstruction, either alone or in combination with the implant are also provided.

Abstract: Provided is a method for purifying ?-thrombin and for quantifying ?-thrombin and its degradation polypeptides in a liquid proteinatious solution. The method employs a one-step anion exchange chromatography method. The method allows purification and/or quantification of a homogenous post-translationally modified ?-thrombin. The method can also be used for purification and/or quantification of ?-thrombin.

Abstract: Compositions containing curable recombinant human collagen, and kits comprising same, which are usable in preparing modeling material formulations for additive manufacturing (e.g., 3D bioprinting) of 3D objects are provided. Methods utilizing such modeling material formulations in additive manufacturing of 3D objects having a collagen-based material in at least a portion thereof, are also provided. The formulations feature a desired viscosity at a temperature higher than 10° C. (e.g., room temperature or 37° C.) and allow performing the additive manufacturing without cooling the system or a part thereof.
