Solid agarose-alginate scaffold enhances autologous chondrocyte implantation Cartipatch aided in-vitro chondrocyte differentiation, researchers said. Issue: Issue 5 2006.

As the microspheres degraded, the alginate lyase enzyme was released into the larger alginate scaffold and slowly began to eat away at its surface, releasing the healthy stem cells in a controlled ...

Chitosan and alginate have a structure similar to the matrix that surrounds cells in the body, to which cells can attach. Different processing techniques can make the scaffold out of ...

It's a two-step process, with the team first creating tiny tubes of an algae extract called alginate, each of which measures just 3 to 5 one-hundredths of an inch in diameter.

The prepared biomaterial served as a cell carrier scaffold, providing a conducive environment for cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Despite challenges in scaffold fabrication and ...

Researchers have developed a new method to make nanofibers that could lead to stronger, more durable bulletproof vests and armor and more robust cellular scaffolding for tissue repair.

In a proof-of-concept study in lymphoma-carrying mice, the researchers found that treatment using the “multifunctional alginate scaffold for T cell engineering and release” (MASTER) implants ...

The team developed a new bioink, a material that contains cells, by combining Laponite with alginate and methylcellulose. The Laponite improved the printability of the bioink due to the shear thinning ...

Engineers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have transformed a polymer found in common brown seaweed into a device that can support the growth and release of stem cells at the sight of a bodily ...
