Structural Characterization of Sodium Alginate and Calcium Alginate
Biomacromolecules, 2016Alginate readily aggregates and forms a physical gel in the presence of cations. The association of the chains, and ultimately gel structure and mechanics, depends not only on ion type, but also on the sequence and composition of the alginate chain that ultimately determines its stiffness.

Effect of alginate composition and purity on alginate microspheres
Journal of Microencapsulation, 2004Alginate is commonly used to microencapsulate islets in experiments with islet allografts and xenografts for the treatment of Type I diabetes. The purpose of the present study is to determine the effects of alginate composition and purity on the morphology and size of microspheres.Microcapsules produced with the impure alginate types, medium-viscosity ...

Diffusion of polyphenols from alginate, alginate/chitosan, and alginate/inulin particles
Journal of Food Process Engineering, 2019Abstract Thymus serpyllum L (thyme) aqueous extract was encapsulated within three different types of particles. Thus, electrostatic extrusion was applied to obtain alginate, alginate/chitosan, and alginate/inulin particles with encapsulated extract which is known as a rich source of polyphenolic compounds.

1980
Algin was first discovered by Stanford in the early 1880’s and there is little doubt that the event was the beginning of a new era in the use of seaweeds. Stanford, when he first prepared this substance, did not succeed in obtaining it in the pure state, and because of the impurities he described it as a nitrogen-containing compound.

Alginate: Pharmaceutical and Medical Applications
2019Due to their outstanding properties in terms of mild gelation conditions and simple functionalization, biocompatibility, low toxicity, biodegradability, non-antigenicity and chelating ability, as well as relatively low cost, alginates have been widely used in a variety of biomedical applications including tissue engineering and drug delivery systems ...
