Within this construct, the bacterium S. oneidensis MR-1 is encapsulated within an alginate-based hydrogel matrix to maintain its metabolic activity and viability. b) Bio-energy devices for neuron ...

As shown in Figure 1, a micronozzle-based hydrodynamic spinning process for Ca-alginate hydrogel fibers with a ... and the ratio of particles eluted from the GelMA hydrogel into the surrounding EDTA ...

Hydrogels are often used as scaffolds in tissue engineering. Living cells infused into the material can, theoretically, grow through the gel until an entire piece of tissue forms. But to grow well ...

Because the pre-hydrogel solution coming out of the 3D printer has a very low viscosity, you can't print the solution onto a regular substrate—or you'd have a puddle instead of a 3D structure.

Alginate hydrogels were mixed with the calcium sulfate crosslinker ... and the remaining hydrogels were dissociated with 9.09 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) (E6758, Sigma-Aldrich). All ...

In this research, the team crafted a medical composite hydrogel based on alginate, offering a potential alternative for vitreous replacement. The hydrogel, possessing high biocompatibility and ...

In a review published on 1 January 2024, in the journal Microsystems & Nanoengineering, researchers discuss hydrogels in photonics, highlighting their potential to revolutionize the field.

Researchers have developed modified alginate hydrogels that can endure the growth of bacteria, allowing them to synthesize important enzymes. Encapsulating cells -- both prokaryotic and eukaryotic ...

Encapsulating cells—both prokaryotic and eukaryotic—allows researchers to carry out experiments in hydrated environments over prolonged periods of time. However, cell growth under these ...

Furthermore, biopolymers such as chitosan, cellulose, alginate, lignin, and chitin have been studied to synthesize operational hydrogel electrolytes. The existence of hydrophilic -COOH, -OH, CONH 2, ...

A paper recently published in the journal Biomaterials Advances demonstrated the effectiveness of a novel near-infrared (NIR) photothermal injectable hydrogel with anti-inflammation and anti-oxidation ...

the dressing itself takes the form of a thin sheet of clear hydrogel – it's made of either polyacrylamide or poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) polymers, along with seaweed-derived alginate gel.
