Noble hydrogel beads based on gelatin and oxidized corn starch were synthesized, and their usefulness and feasibility in treating effluent with dyes were studied in this work. Tartrazine was ...

"Our cell only printing platform allows for the 3D printing of cells without a classical scaffold support using a temporary hydrogel bead bath in which printing takes place," Alsberg said.

They wanted to figure out why this was happening, so they took their own hydrogel beads, soaked them in water, and dropped them into pans heated up to about 419 degrees Fahrenheit. The researchers ...

A viral video of gel beads bouncing and squealing in a hot frying pan has led to the discovery that hydrogels slapping against a hot surface can generate substantial kinetic energy. This could one ...

As an alternative, a team led by Prof. Eben Alsberg has developed a system which uses a block of hydrogel made up of microscopic beads. A printing nozzle is lowered into that gel, where it moves ...
