The interaction between calcium alginate and SuperParaMagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticle (SPION) were investigated. The microcapsules properties were studied through pH dependent degradation, mechanical compression, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy-Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray...
