(a) To investigate the proportion of NIH 3T3 cells delivered within phosphate buffered saline (PBS), uncross‐linked 1% alginate solution, 1:4 cross‐linked alginate gels and high viscosity CMC after ejection through a 30G syringe needle at 50 μl/min, normalised to directly plated control (mean ± SEM%, n = 3). (b) Cell proliferation of NIH 3T3 cells when injected unprotected in PBS and in several carriers (n = 3, mean ± SEM). Asterisks indicate statistically significant improvement in proliferation of ejected cells compared with the directly plated control cells at 72 h (P < 0.05); CMC, carboxymethylcellulose.
