Magnetic hydrogels derived from polysaccharides with improved specific power absorption: potential devices for remotely triggered drug delivery [PDF]
We report on novel ferrogels derived from polysaccharides (sodium alginate and chitosan) with embedded iron oxide nanoparticles synthesized in situ and their combination with thermally responsive poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) for externally-driven drug release using AC magnetic fields.

Instability-induced patterning of a jelling jet [PDF]
When a thin stream of aqueous sodium alginate is extruded into a reacting calcium chloride bath, it polymerizes into a soft elastic tube that spontaneously forms helical coils due to the ambient fluid drag. We quantify the onset of this drag-induced instability and its nonlinear evolution using experiments, and explain the results using a combination ...

Interactions between different forms of bovine lactoferrin and sodium alginate affect the properties of their mixtures [PDF]
The interactions between different forms (apo-, native- and holo-) of lactoferrin (Lf) and sodium alginate at different ratios in aqueous solution in the pH range of 4-7 were evaluated.

Pengaruh Konsentrasi Larutan Natrium Hipoklorit terhadap Stabilitas Dimensi Cetakan Alginat
Alginate is one of the transmission media of cross infection, therefore disinfection is necessary before proceeding to the next step. One of the ways to disinfection alginate is by spraying sodium hypochlorite.
