A Method for Microencapsulation of Cells and a Device for Its Realization

  • METHODS
  • Published:
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

The device for cell encapsulation makes it possible to fabricate microcapsules of a preset size with even smooth surface, without defects or adhesion to each other, with viable cells inside the capsule. The cells were derived from newborn piglet pancreases.
