Our review paper on oxidized alginate hydrogels published in Biomacromolecules
Supachai Reakasame (PhD student, DAAD fellow) and Prof. Aldo R. Boccaccini have co-authored a comprehensive review paper entitled “Oxidized alginate based hydrogels for tissue engineering applications: A review “, published in Biomacromolecules (2017) [1]. The review paper covers research publications reporting the development of Oxidized Alginate based hydrogels for tissue engineering applications including bone, cartilage, blood vessel, cornea and other soft tissues. Our Institute has considerable research activities in the field of biofabrication utilizing oxidized alginate based hydrogels combined with gelatine, as introduced in 2014 by our group [2].
