This paper describes a 3D perfusable device for the purification of pancreatic islets and the assessment of dynamic insulin secretion of purified islets. (Fig. 1) Islet transplantation is an innovative treatment that have the advantages such as pa...
A novel and simple method for constructing cell sheets is described in which culture surfaces were modified with RGD peptide-coupled alginate hydrogels using an electrodeposition method. Cells were cultured on the hydrogels to form a contiguous ce...
