description | The present invention provides a capsule made of a biologically compatible material with sufficient mechanical strength to form a very thin membrane shell having at least a region with approximately uniformly sized and spaced holes or pores that are large enough to let a desired biologically active molecular product through, while blocking the passage of all larger immunological molecules. The present invention thus provides an immunological isolation of cell transplants contained therein. The present invention also provides a free standing thin film structure that may be used as a component of such a capsule and method for the fabrication of such component and capsules. |
