How alginate properties influence in situ internal gelation in crosslinked alginate microcapsules (CLAMs) formed by spray drying.
Alginates gel rapidly under ambient conditions and have widely documented potential to form protective matrices for sensitive bioactive cargo. Most commonly, alginate gelation occurs via calcium mediated electrostatic crosslinks between the linear polyuronic acid polymers. A recent breakthrough to f...
