Effect of surface wettability and charge on protein adsorption onto implantable alginate-chitosan-alginate microcapsule surfaces

open access: yes, 2010
Alginate-chitosan-alginate (ACA) microcapsules have been developed as a device for the transplantation of living cells. However, protein adsorption onto the surface of microcapsules immediately upon their implantation decides their ultimate ...

Organoids as Building Blocks for Adaptive and Resilient Biohybrid Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biohybrid robots combine engineered living tissues with synthetic materials and have emerged as a promising class of soft robotic systems capable of mimicking biological functions such as biodegradability, energy efficiency and flexible motions. By integrating biological and synthetic components, these systems leverage complementary properties

Degradable Magnetic Composites from Recycled NdFeB Magnets for Soft Actuation and Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a degradable soft magnetic composite made from recycled NdFeB particles embedded in a gelatin‐based organogel. The material is processed into magnetic sensors and soft robotic components, which can later be dissolved in a green solvent to recover NdFeB magnetic particles.

Analysis of the alginate O-acetylation machinery in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yes, 2020
O-acetylation of alginate produced by the opportunistic human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa significantly contributes to its pathogenesis. Three proteins, AlgI, AlgJ and AlgF have been implicated to form a complex and act together with AlgX for O ...

Coating of alginate capsules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Alginate is a popular candidate for encapsulation of cells due to the formation of gels with divalent ions under physiological conditions. Stable alginate gels can be formed by the selection of alginates with a high content of guluronic acid (G) and ...

Effect of different concentrations of xanthan and alginate on the quality of encapsulated fish oil

open access: yes‬‭Majallah-i ̒Ilmī-i Shīlāt-i Īrān, 2017
The aim of this study was to evaluate encapsulation efficiency of fish oil using different combinations of xanthan and sodium alginate (core-wall ratio of 1:2). Experimental treatments were consisted of xanthan 1%, Alginate 1%, xanthan 0.75% + Alginate 0.
