Bioelectric Thread and Delivery Device

A method of formulating and delivering a bioelectric thread within tissue is provided by inserting a tube-loaded needle having the bioelectric thread contained therein within tissue, and removing the needle and tube thereby leaving the bioelectric thread within the tissue, wherein the bioelectric thread includes a crosslinked material substrate having electrically conductive cells, such as cardiomyocytes seeded thereon or within.
