Two-photon polymerization of alginate hydrogels for applications in cell culture

This work presents two-photon polymerization (2PP) of microstructured 3D hydrogels using alginate for the first time. Alginate is one of the most prevalent biopolymers used for hydrogels due to its biocompatibility, reversible ionic gelation and natural abundance. 2PP enables the fabrication of str...
