Global protein consumption is increasing exponentially, which requires efficient identification of potential, healthy, and simple protein sources to fulfil the demands. The existing sources of animal proteins are high in fat and low in fiber composition, which might cause serious health risks when consumed regularly. Moreover, protein production from animal sources can negatively affect the environment, as it often requires more energy and natural resources and contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.

Stress shielding in dental and orthopedic implants is a long-standing hurdle, and trabecular porous architecture to improve bone ingrowth is deemed to be a potential solution. Fabricating TiAlV components with dense-porous bilayer structures is complicated with limited lab-scale and commercial success. Here, a green dough-forming technique with metal powders is successfully explored to develop heterogeneous structures with a monolith-like dense-porous interface.

Three-dimensional (3D) printing of hydrogel structures using jammed microgel inks offer distinct advantages of improved printing functionalities, as these inks are strain-yielding and self-recovering types. However, interparticle binding in granular hydrogel inks is a challenge to overcome the limited integrity and reduced macroscale modulus prevalent in the 3D printed microgel scaffolds. In this study, we prepared chemically annealable agarose microgels through a process of xerogel rehydration, applying a low-cost and high throughput method of spray drying.
