A correlative spatiotemporal microscale study of calcium phosphate formation and transformation within an alginate hydrogel matrix.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The modification of soft hydrogels with hard inorganic components is a method used to form composite materials with application in non-load-bearing bone tissue engineering. The inclusion of an inorganic component may provide ... -
Alginate microbeads are complement compatible, in contrast to polycation containing microcapsules, as revealed in a human whole blood model
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Alginate microbeads and microcapsules are presently under evaluation for future cell-based therapy. Defining their inflammatory properties with regard to humans is therefore essential. A lepirudine-based human whole blood ... -
Bio-instructive materials for musculoskeletal regeneration
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The prevalence and cost of disorders affecting the musculoskeletal system are predicted to rise significantly in the coming years due to the aging global population and the increase of associated risk factors. Despite being ... -
Gelling kinetics and in situ mineralization of alginate hydrogels: A correlative spatiotemporal characterization toolbox.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Due to their large water content and structural similarities to the extracellular matrix, hydrogels are an attractive class of material in the tissue engineering field. Polymers capable of ionotropic gelation are of special ... -
Stabilisation of amorphous calcium phosphate in polyethylene glycol hydrogels
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Acellular polymer-calcium phosphate composites are promising bone graft materials. Hydrogels are suitable for providing a temporary matrix, while calcium phosphate minerals serve as ion depots for calcium and phosphate ... -
Sulfated alginate microspheres associate with factor H and dampen the inflammatorycytokine response
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Alginate microspheres show promise for cell-encapsulation therapy but encounter challenges related to biocompatibility. In the present work we designed novel microbeads and microcapsules based on sulfated polyalternating ...
