چکیده
In article number 2006759, Hyung Joon Cha, Joonwon Kim, and co-workers develop an optical-fiber-integrated microfluidic device that can continuously form hydrogel microfibers via in situ photo-crosslinking extreme endovascular environments. The are based on a double-crosslinked alginate employs the dityrosine bond. This with is attractive strategy to fill aneurysms effectively.

Preparation of Alginate Microfibers for Cell Entrapment Using a Microfluidic Device
This paper describes a method for the production of multi-compartmental alginate microfibers using a glass microfluidic device. The key parameters, which critically influence the formation of microfibers and their geometries, were identified and their interplay was investigated with a statistical approach by means of a “design of the experiments” optimization and screening. Finally, the process...
متن کاملGeneration of alginate microfibers with a roller-assisted microfluidic system.
This work describes a convenient microfluidic strategy with a simple and minimal-requirement design for the generation of uniformly-sized alginate gel fibers with diameters one order of magnitude smaller than those formed in conventional methods. Different from common microfluidic methods, our system contains a single microchannel through which alginate solutions are transported and squeezed in...

microchannels. Interestingly, this impulse can achieve to temporarily cease the spinning process. Moreover, an optimized magnetic assembly is achieved by considering both the assembling area on a ring magnet and the MNPs concentration in microfibers. After the test of cell survival, a high cell viability of 97.2 % can be confirmed in assembled structures, which indicates that our method allows ...
متن کاملWet-spinning fabrication of shear-patterned alginate hydrogel microfibers and the guidance of cell alignment
Native tissue is naturally comprised of highly-ordered cell-matrix assemblies in a multi-hierarchical way, and the nano/submicron alignment of fibrous matrix is found to be significant in supporting cellular functionalization. In this study, a self-designed wet-spinning device appended with a rotary receiving pool was used to continuously produce shear-patterned hydrogel microfibers with aligne...
متن کاملPreparation, Modification, and Characterization of Alginate Hydrogel with Nano-/Microfibers: A New Perspective for Tissue Engineering
We aimed to develop an alginate hydrogel (AH) modified with nano-/microfibers of titanium dioxide (nfTD) and hydroxyapatite (nfHY) and evaluated its biological and chemical properties. Nano-/microfibers of nfTD and nfHY were combined with AH, and its chemical properties were evaluated by FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-Ray analysis, and the cytocompatibility by the WST...
