Methylcellulose Assays In the 1960’s, several researchers determined that only cells capable of proliferation were able to form colonies. Therefore, counting the colony forming units could be a good surrogate... read more →
Immobilization of living cells or other biomaterials in alginate gels is a well-known technology used in an increasing number of biomedical and industrial applications. Cells immobilized in alginate gels maintain... read more →
In contrast to most other polysaccharide gels, alginate gels can develop and set at constant temperature. This unique property is particularly useful in applications involving fragile materials like cells or... read more →
There are numerous biomedical uses for biomaterials made in the form of films, fibers, foams and gels. It is highly desirable that these materials exhibit biocompatibility and biodegradability (when required).... read more →
Applications utilizing the entrapment of living cells or other biomaterials in small biopolymer beads have found several uses. This includes implantation of alginate beads containing living cells which have been... read more →
Biomaterials are playing a vital role in our day-to-day life. Sodium Hyaluronate, fermented from Streptococcus zooepidemicus, is a linear copolymer composed of (ß-1,4)-linked D-glucuronate and (ß-1,3)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine. Sodium Hyaluronate is an... read more →
