Figure Lengend Snippet: 3D-bioprinted CAD file that was used to print the fibroblast construct. The final dome-shaped structure had a 1.0 cm diameter and six layers of fibers with an average width of ≈1.1 cm and a height of ≈0.7 cm (Aspect studio software, V1.2.59.0, Aspect Biosystems, Vancouver, BC, Canada).

Figure Lengend Snippet: S. aureus bacterial fluorescence imaging using BacLight ® . Bacteria were imaged in LB broth after the addition of SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL: (a) green emission (live bacteria) and (b) red emission (dead bacteria). Fibroblast treatment of bare SiNPs: (c) green emission (live bacteria) and (d) red emission (dead bacteria). Untreated fibroblast constructs: (e) green emission (live bacteria) and (f) red emission (dead bacteria). Images (a–f) are from the same location with different fluorescence.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Imaging of 3D-bioprinted construct of fibroblasts infected with S. epidermidis (AH852) and treated with SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL under three conditions: pre-infection and pre-treatment (control group, with only fibroblasts 3D bioprinted), post-infection and pre-treatment (only S. epidermidis with GFP (green dots in the image) inoculation in the 3D-bioprinted construct, but with no treatment), and post-infection and post-treatment ( S. epidermidis with GFP (green dots in the image) inoculation in the 3D-bioprinted construct treated with SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Investigations in the “dermis” model of 3D-bioprinted construct inoculated with S. epidermidis and treated with SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL. (a) CFU counts in the pre-infection and pre-treatment condition, showing the higher S. epidermidis CFUs (before inoculating them in the 3D-bioprinted construct) than in the fibroblast HDFn media. (b) CFU counts in the post-infection and pre-treatment conditions show higher S. epidermidis growth over time. (c) CFU counts in the post-infection and post-treatment conditions highlight the effectiveness of SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL treatment against S. epidermidis in the 3D-bioprinted construct. (d) Growth curve of the S. epidermidis (AH852) showing its growth over time. (e) S. epidermidis bacterial imaging using BacLight® fluorescence detection. Bacteria were imaged in LB broth after the addition of SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL, green fluorescent protein (GFP): live bacteria (green dots in the image), Texas Red: dead bacteria (red dots in the image). The absence of red dots indicates that the SiNP-loaded clindamycin 500 mg/mL was an effective treatment against S. epidermidis in the 3D-bioprinted construct, in that it prevented the S. epidermidis from forming colonies or biofilms in the 3D-bioprinted construct. Images on (e) are the same spot with different fluorescence (one-way ANOVA and Tukey post-test; *: p < 0.05).
