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 -- ...
Carbon dioxide creates the acidic environment necessary for calcium ions to link alginate chains, forming the hydrogel. However, the rapid release of CO₂ after gelation limits calcium ion availability ...
A research team has developed an innovative injectable adhesive hydrogel for bone regeneration. This hydrogel utilizes harmless visible light to simultaneously achieve cross-linking and mineralization ...
A research team led by Professor Hyung Joon Cha from POSTECH's Department of Chemical Engineering and Graduate School of Convergence Science and Technology with a specialization in Medical Science, ...
Calcium transforms silk hydrogels into a versatile platform that prints precisely, stores for months, and fuses after sterilization, overcoming barriers to practical biomedical use. (Nanowerk ...
