Chemical enhancement of footwear impressions in blood deposited on fabric — evaluating the use of alginate casting materials followed by chemical enhancement [PDF]
, 2010 Most footwear marks made in blood on a surface such as fabric tend to be enhanced in situ rather than physically recovered using a lifting technique prior to enhancement.

Cell-Laden alginate biomaterial modelling using three-dimensional (3D) microscale finite element technique [PDF]
, 2021 A novel modelling technique using finite element analysis to mimic the mechanoresponse of cell-laden biomaterial is proposed for the use in bioinks and other tissue engineering applications. Here a hydrogel-based composite biomaterial specimen was used consisting of 5% (V/V) HeLa cells added to alginate solution (4% W/V) and another specimen with no ...
