| Abstract | A micro-stratified 3D scaffold was designed by successive stacking of alginate gel layers (AGLs) and poly(L-lysine)–hyaluronic acid (PLL–HA) multilayer films. AGLs are obtained by complexation of alginate by Ca2+ ions. Alginate solutions are first sprayed onto a solid substrate inclined such that the excess of solution be removed by natural drainage. A CaCl2 solution is then either sprayed onto the substrate or the alginate covered substrate is dipped into a CaCl2 solution. The spraying of the CaCl2 solution leads to micro-porous AGLs, whereas the dipping in a CaCl2 aqueous solution leads to a more homogeneous gel layer without porosity. The second process also allows the formation of AGLs with a controlled thickness. With the goal of stacking different AGLs and PLL–HA films, the influence of a PLL–HA precursor film on the formation of AGLs is firstly investigated. It is found that when an alginate solution is sprayed on a PLL–HA multilayer built in the presence of CaCl2, the multilayer plays the role of reservoir of Ca2+ ions and of PLL chains, which both diffuse out of the multilayer film and complex alginate chains. This leads to the formation of a “pre-alginate gel”. When this film is further dipped in the CaCl2 solution, an additional AGL forms, which is, however, free of PLL chains. Finally after the build-up of a PLL–HA film on the top of AGL, we succeeded in designing micro-stratified 3D scaffolds constituted by alternating strata of AGLs and PLL–HA films. This micro-stratified gel provides a new scaffold design with a perfectly controlled build-up: AGL aims to be a 3D scaffold for cell culture, and the PLL–HA multilayers should act as reservoirs for biologically active molecules. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
