Barium measured in blood samples (A) and femur bone (B) from Balb/c mice 16 weeks post implantation with alginate beads. Ca/Ba-beads: high-G alginate gelled in 50 mM CaCl2 and 1 mM BaCl2, n = 3 for all samples (2 femurs per mouse) except for n = 2 for bead volume of 0.30 ml. Ba-beads: high-G alginate gelled in 20 mM BaCl2, n = 3 (2 femurs per mouse) for all samples. Control: not transplanted mice, n = 5 (9 femurs). Results are given as mean ± StDev, except for n = 2 where both values are shown.
