Combining gellan gum with a functional low-molecular-weight gelator to assemble stiff shaped hybrid hydrogels for stem cell growth

We report hybrid hydrogels that combine gellan gum (GG) polymer gelator (PG) with a low-molecular weight gelator (LMWG) based on 1,3:2,4-dibenzylidene sorbitol (DBS). We fabricate these gels into beads using a heat-cool cycle to set the LMWG gel and then using different calcium sources (CaCl 2 and C...
