UV-visible spectroscopy and Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) affirmed change in enzyme conformation and binding occurrence. Molecular docking revealed ligands interaction with α-amylase via some key catalytic site amino acid residues (Asp197, Glu233 and Asp300). DY301 perhaps showed highest α-amylase inhibition (IC50, 268.11 ± 0.74 μM) due to its moderately high affinity and composition of two sulphide bonds unlike the others. This study might provide theoretical basis for development of novel α-amylase inhibitors from dichalcogenoimidodiphosphinate ligands for management of postprandial hyperglycemia.Bioprinting of cellular aggregates, such as tissue spheroids, to form three-dimensional (3D) complex-shaped arrangements, has posed a major challenge due to lack of robust, reproducible and practical bioprinting techniques. Here, we demonstrate 3D aspiration-assisted freeform bioprinting of tissue spheroids by precisely positioning them in self-healing yield-stress gels, enabling the self-assembly of spheroids for fabrication of tissues. The presented approach enables the traverse of spheroids directly from the cell media to the gel and freeform positioning of the spheroids on demand. We study the underlying physical mechanism of the approach to elucidate the interactions between the aspirated spheroids and the gel's yield-stress during the transfer of spheroids from cell media to the gel. We further demonstrate the application of the proposed approach in the realization of various freeform shapes and self-assembly of human mesenchymal stem cell spheroids for the construction of cartilage and bone tissues.[This corrects the article DOI 10.1002/h
