Development of functionalized multi-walled carbon-nanotube-based alginate hydrogels for enabling biomimetic technologies

Alginate is a hydrogel commonly used for cell culture by ionically crosslinking in the presence of divalent Ca(2+) ions. However these alginate gels are mechanically unstable, not permitting their use as scaffolds to engineer robust biological bone, breast, cardiac or tumor tissues. This issue can b...
