Biopolymeric hydrogels have been utilized as a technique to provide three-dimensional structures and microenvironment for many cell types in-vitro and in-vivo. Ca-alginate hydrogels have the potential of being a biocompatible polymeric scaffold with structurally similarity to the extra-cellular matr...
