The role of multivalent cations in determining the cross-linking affinity of alginate hydrogels: A combined experimental and modeling study
This study explores the development of a comprehensive mathematical model to predict the cross-link density of alginate hydrogels using varying concentrations of divalent and trivalent ions. By systematically investigating the effects of Ca²⁺, Ba²⁺, Cu²⁺, Sr²⁺, Mg²⁺, Fe3⁺ and Al³⁺, the research desc...
