BioTube: Designing and Fabricating Biodegradable Hollow Tubular Devices Through Progressive Crosslinking Alginate

We present BioTube, a sustainable and highly accessible DIY fabrication approach for creating hollow tubular alginate, and demonstrate its potential for making biodegradable transient devices. This technique involves extruding alginate into a calcium solution, initiating a progressive crosslinking process that starts…
