Label-free magnetic levitation is one of the most recent Earth-based in vitro techniques that simulate the microgravity. This technique offers a great opportunity to biofabricate scaffold-free 3-dimensional (3D) structures and to study the effects of microgravity on these structures. In this study, self-assembled 3D living structures were fabricated in a paramagnetic medium by magnetic levitation technique and effects of the technique on cellular health was assessed. This magnetic force-assisted assembly system applied here offers broad applications in several fields, such as space biotechnology and bottom-up tissue engineering.
