Correlating Structure and Rheology in Ionically Crosslinked Alginate Biopolymer Hydrogels - A Case for Why "Less" can be "More"

Vinay Kopnar, Peter S. Sherin, Sarah P. Graham, Harriet Fyfe, Reyna I. Garcia-Gonzalez, Adam O’Connell, Natasha Shirshova, Anna Barnard, John M. Girkin, Marina K. Kuimova, John H. F. Bothwell, Anders Aufderhorst-Roberts

This study investigates how structural changes in ionically crosslinked alginate hydrogels affect their rheological properties, finding that higher crosslinking can reduce mechanical performance.
