... 08 07 2010 This paper investigates the use of calcium alginate microcapsules to transport biomaterials for drug delivery. Rhodamine 6G dye was encapsulated in microcapsules for different formulations of the hydrogels using drop-on-demand printing. An experimental design was constructed...

... the size of the droplet versus the size of the microcapsules formed. Varying sizes of microcapsules are formed based on different concentrations of calcium chloride solvent. This understanding will give insight for fabricating drug delivery capsules and tissue scaffolds that are subject to extreme ambient...
