Preparation of alginate hydrogel microparticles using droplet-based microfluidics: a review of methods

arXiv:2009.06898

Abstract

This review focuses on a microparticle-producing technique widely used for its efficacy in controlling physicochemical properties: droplet-based microfluidics. The review describes the various strategies applied under this technique, and the size, shape, concentration, stability and mechanical properties of the alginate hydrogel microparticles obtained.
