METHODS OF EXTRUDING MULTILAYER FIBERS

The present disclosure is directed to tubular fibers and methods of making thereof. In some cases, the fibers may be made of a hydrogel, in some cases an alginate hydrogel. The tube may have a nonsolid inner layer and an outer layer surrounding the inner layer. At least one of the inner layer and th...

Zusammenfassung:The present disclosure is directed to tubular fibers and methods of making thereof. In some cases, the fibers may be made of a hydrogel, in some cases an alginate hydrogel. The tube may have a nonsolid inner layer and an outer layer surrounding the inner layer. At least one of the inner layer and the outer layer may contain cells. In some cases, the tubular fiber may be used to study intercellular interactions.
