            Figure 4. Confocal microscopy of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) encapsulated in the printed constructs: commercial ink (A, E, I, and M),
            GelMaBB (B, F, J, and N), GelMaBB-CaP (C, G, K, and O), and GelMaGO (D, H, L, and P). (A–H) Live/dead staining with calcein AM (green) and
            propidium-iodide (red) after 7 (A–D) and 14 (E–H) days. (I–P) Staining with Phalloidin TRITC (red) and Hoechst 33258 (blue) after 7 (I–L) and 14 (M–P)
            days. Scale bars: 250 µm. Abbreviations: GelMa: Gelatin methacrylamide; BB: Brilliant Black; CaP: Calcium phosphate; GO: Graphene oxide.

            To assess the cellular performance in the different   pilot studies in accordance with the morphological data as
            bioinks quantitatively, we determined the DNA amount   described above. Thus, we focused on the GelMaBB bioink
            in the DLP-printed constructs over time and for several   and its modifications in the upcoming experiments.
