The present article investigates the substitution of poly‐l‐lysine by two different
oligochitosans as membrane‐coating capsule, and its effect on different functionality …

In the past, it has been proven that by properly adjusting the molecular mass of the
oligochitosan samples, it is possible to optimize the formation of rigid, biocompatible …

The majority of cell encapsulation systems applied so far are based on polyelectrolyte
complexes of alginate and polyvalent metal cations. Although widely used, these systems …

Cell microencapsulation holds promise for the treatment of many diseases by the continuous
delivery of therapeutic products. The biocompatibility of the microcapsules and their …

Poly-L-lysine (PLL) can be replaced successfully by quaternized chitosan to prepare
alginate-Ca microcapsules. By changing the compontent of quaternized chitosan mixture …

The use of chitosan in complexation with alginate appears to be a promising strategy for cell
microencapsulation, due to the biocompatibility of both polymers and the high mechanical …

Alginate‐chitosan (AC) microcapsules with desired strength and biocompatibility are
preferred in cell‐based therapy. Sequential assembly of higher and lower deacetylated …

The characteristics of the microcapsule surface, which interacts directly with the host
macrophages, may have a role in the biocompatibility of alginate‐poly‐l‐lysine (PLL) …

Abstract Alginate‐chitosan‐alginate (ACA) microcapsules have been developed as a device
for the transplantation of living cells. However, protein adsorption onto the surface of …

Cell encapsulation technology holds promise for the cell‐based therapy. But poor
mechanical strength and biocompatibility of microcapsule membrane are still obstacles for …
