Created by Prof. Hyung Joon Cha and colleagues at Korea's Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), it's a hydrogel made up of alginate (derived from algae), a bioengineered mussel ...

In DNA, 2-deoxy-D-ribose molecules link together through phosphate groups to form a sugar-phosphate backbone. This backbone ...

The general applicability of the system is demonstrated with the creation of layered hydrogels from both chitosan and alginate, which are cationic and anionic polyelectrolytes, respectively.

Research has shown that the rheological properties of hydrogels significantly influence their printability. For instance, studies on alginate-based hydrogels have explored how the addition of ...

Alginate, a naturally occurring polymer ... biodegradable, and non-immunogenic hydrogels that remain stable under biologically relevant conditions and encourage cell adhesion, spreading, and ...
