Tissue engineered biomaterial constructs are needed for plastic and reconstructive
applications. To successfully form a space‐filling tissue, the construct should induce a …

Application of alginate-polylysine (PLL) capsules for immunoisolation of living cells are
suffering from a varying degree of success and large lab-to-lab variations. In this study we …

DIABECELL® capsules comprise an inner core of alginate (Alg) coated with a polycationic
polymer, poly‐l‐ornithine (PLO), designed as a stabilizing agent for strengthening the …

Tissue engineering, a major technique in regenerative medicine, follows the principles of
cell biology, materials science, and engineering to develop biological substitutes that mimic …

A novel, injectable bone tissue engineering material was developed that consisted of β-
tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) beads as the solid phase and alginate as the gel phase. To …

Available evidence indicates that pro-inflammatory cytokines produced by immune cells are
likely responsible for the negative sequela associated with the foreign body response (FBR) …

The flow properties of liquid calcium alginate injections were investigated for application in
endovascular embolization. Alginate shear properties were assessed with a rheometer and …

Alginate/aminopropyl-silicate/alginate (Alg/AS/Alg) membrane was prepared on Ca-alginate
gel beads by a sol–gel process. The membrane has≡ Si–O–Si≡ bonds as well as …

Many diseases are closely tied to deficient or subnormal metabolic and secretory cell
functions. Milder forms of these diseases can be managed by a variety of treatments …

Alginate‐polylysine (PLL) capsules are commonly applied for immunoisolation of living cells
for the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. Large‐scale application of the technique …
