Alginate encapsulation using electrospraying. (A) Diagram of electrospraying technique used to make alginate beads (B). Representative micrograph of CB cells encapsulated in alginate (i) bright-field, (ii) calcein-AM staining, showing the cells are viable. (C) Composite image of alginate beads containing cells visualized with calcein (green) and tagged with red fluorescent tags (shown by large and small arrows respectively). (D) Micrograph showing CB cells encapsulated in alginate and stained with the antibodies against (i) Ki67 [Alexa Fluor 488 (green)] and (ii) CD133 [Alexa Fluor 594 (red)]. CB, cord blood. Scale bars = 100 micrometres.
