Why Engineers Want To Put B Vitamins In 3-D Printers : Shots - Health News : NPR Almost every day it seems theres a new use for 3-D printing. In medicine, the printers are already making , hearing aid cases and parts of human ears. But the materials used in some 3-D printing processes could be toxic to humans, particularly if the products get inside the body. So researchers have been looking for ways found a way to replace some of the bad stuff with naturally occurring , or vitamin B2. Riboflavin is found in lots of food, including green veggies, nuts and fish. Our cells arent programmed to reject it, which could make it handy for use in 3-D printed medical implants, or to build custom body parts in the lab.
