UV-irradiation method has grown as an alternative approach to in situ synthetize silvernanoparticles (AgNPs) for avoiding the use of toxic reducing agents. Since it is promising the development of materials that could be printed with 3D technology, the aim of this work was to develop a new 3D-printed material based on collagen, with the in-situ synthesis of AgNPs in order to endow the biomaterial with the antimicrobial activity of silver.
