Enhancing Injectability and Viability of Cells using Viscoplastic Lubricated Flows
Hydrogels have been used as scaffolds and structural supports for cell growth. However, injecting these hydrogels requires substantial forces which also lead to high shear in the cell and ultimately cell death. Current methods to mitigate this problem suffer from limited applicability, poor durabili...
