Schematic of the procedure for synthesizing multilayered alginate microcapsules. The inner alginate core is formed by crosslinking 1.5% LVM alginate in 2mM CaCl2. A PLO coating is then generated on the bead surface before the addition of alginate and crosslinking with CaCl2 to form the outer layer.
