Production of ultra-high concentration calcium alginate beads with prolonged dissolution profile

Calcium alginate hydrogel beads have been widely studied as a carrier matrix for the delivery of food and pharmaceutical compounds. Typically, calcium alginate beads have a short dissolution time of between 1 to 2 h in simulated intestinal fluid, thus limiting some applications that require prolonge...
