Alginate, a biopolymer of natural origin, is of immense interest for its variety of applications in pharmaceuticals (as medical diagnostic aids) and in materials science. It is the one of the most abundant natural biopolymers and is considered an excellent excipient because of its non-toxic, stable, and biodegradable properties. Several research innovations have been made on applications of alginate in drug delivery and biomedicines. There needs to be a thorough understanding of the synthesis, purification, and characterization of alginates and its derivatives for their utility in healthcare fields, and this volume offers an abundance of information toward that end.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bone tissue engineering is employed to help enhance regeneration of bone tissue that may have difficulty of achieving sufficient healing on its own. As bones tend to break in irregular manners, methods to produce engineered scaffolds more closely fitting the geometry of the defective tissue are desirable. Current techniques to produce engineered bone tissue constructs result in stiff, rigid scaffolds with limited plasticity and ability to form irregular architectures. Additionally, processing methods limit the feasibility to uniformly incorporate live cells into the scaffolds for enhanced uniform healing. The use of hydrogel materials for bone tissue engineering has gained interest due to their high water content and interwoven structure mimicking that of the natural extracellular matrix, rendering them favorable for live cell incorporation. Alginate is a hydrogel with materials properties allowing manipulation in a variety of ways for numerous applications, including injectable fillers, 3D printing, drug and growth factor delivery, cell encapsulation and many more. In this work, the gelation properties of a series of alginate hydrogel formulations were thoroughly studied and control of the gelation rate was established by varying component concentrations. An optimal hydrogel system was developed with a gelation time appropriate in a surgical setting and composition capable of aiding in new bone formation, confirmed through various characterization techniques. A systematic investigation was then conducted using the knowledge gained to determine the feasibility of their use in 3D printing. As a result, an alginate-polyvinyl alcohol-hydroxyapatite formulation was developed with optimal rheological properties allowing encapsulation of MC3T3 cells and 3D bioprinting of scaffolds with high shape fidelity and cell viability. Degradation studies showed the scaffolds maintained sufficient mechanical stability to support cell life in culture. In vitro evaluations were then conducted to determine the capacity of the formulations to support cell viability and promote cell proliferation. A synergistic effect was discovered, highlighting the need for both sufficient cell adhesion modalities in the matrix and appropriate scaffold mechanical rigidity. Thus, the development of these alginate hydrogel systems can provide more personalized treatment options for bone repair with potential to enhance bone tissue regeneration.
Download or read book Alginates written by and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2020-02-05 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alginates are polysaccharides found in both the intercellular matrix of brown algae and extracellularly covering some species of bacteria. Alginate varies in composition of the algae from 20% to 60% dry matter, but on average brown algae species has 40% alginate. Alginate from brown algae occurs as gels containing sodium, calcium, strontium, magnesium, and barium ions. They are widely used by the food industry, giving foods texture properties such as thickening, adhesion, emulsification, gelling, or fullness. This book covers the latest uses of this phycocolloid in the pharmaceutical, medical, and technological fields, namely bioink for 3D bioprinting in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, and the application of artificial intelligence in modern healthcare systems.
