Results: Cytotoxicity tests on 3T3 cells revealed increased cell viability with the calendula-alginate hydrogel. The calendula-alginate hydrogel also demonstrated a significant improvement in wound ...

Hydrogel microcapsules provide well-defined and biocompatible platforms for 3D cell culture, which is greatly desired for replacing, or enhancing the function of damaged human tissue and in vitro ...

In this study, cell-laden alginate-poly-L-lysine (PLL) hydrogel structures with arbitrary shapes were constructed based on electrodeposition method. Electrolysis of water in alginate solutions with ...

Myocardial fibrosis is a pathological hallmark of heart failure post infarction, emphasizing the need for innovative treatment strategies. This research assesses the antifibrotic potential of a sodium ...

The second section explains how nanocelluloses can be modified for use in medicine. Chemically altering nanocellulose to create hydrogels, nanogels, and nanocomposites, as well as altering the surface ...

Similar to chitosan, the highly porous three-dimensional structure of alginate hydrogels offers advantageous swelling properties due to the presence of hydrophilic functional groups (Lee and Mooney, ...

A temperature-sensitive hydrogel embedded with sodium alginate (SA)-chitosan (CS) microspheres was constructed for colon-targeted delivery of SZ-A.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the reinforcing efficiency of natural fibers on DN hydrogels. Sodium alginate and polyacrylamide were used to construct the DN hydrogel. Cellulose ...

ABSTRACT This paper describes the preparation and characterization of alginate beads coated with gelatin and containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus. Capsules were obtained by extrusion method using CaCl 2 ...

Researchers have developed a new silver-hydrogel composite for bioelectronics that combines high electrical conductivity with soft, stretchable biocompatibility.
