Alginate has been widely used as cell carriers for cell-based therapy applications due to its intrinsic properties, such as non-toxic and non-antigenicity. However, the bioinert behavior of alginate often resulted in poor cell interaction that resulted in poor survivability of the cells. Thus, an ef...
