Mosquitoes live almost everywhere on Earth and are easy to rear. The team estimates that organic 3D printing nozzles made ...

Researchers at McGill University used a mosquito proboscis as a biodegradable micro nozzle for high resolution 3D printing.

When engineers struggled to make 3D printer nozzles narrow enough for their needs, they turned to nature and found the proboscis of a female mosquito had exactly the properties they needed ...

Explore the innovative technique of 3D necroprinting, utilizing mosquito anatomy for high-precision 3D fabrication.

A mosquito has a very finely tuned proboscis that is excellent at slipping through your skin to suck out the blood beneath.

A Canadian research team has developed a technology that uses mosquito mouthparts to create ultra-fine nozzles for 3D printers. https://www.newscientist.com/article ...

The team developed a custom 3D printer, dubbed the “3D necroprinter,” which mounted the mosquito proboscis on a standard dispensing tip. The main challenge was the proboscis’s limited mechanical ...
