Stability of Biomimetically Functionalised Alginate Microspheres as 3D Support in Cell Cultures

Alginate hydrogels can be used to develop a three-dimensional environment in which various cell types can be grown. Cross-linking the alginate chains using reversible ionic bonds opens up great possibilities for the encapsulation and subsequent release of cells or drugs. However, alginate also has a...
