Optimization of the spherical integrity for sustained-release alginate microcarriers-encapsulated doxorubicin by the Taguchi method

Abstract This study aimed to develop biodegradable calcium alginate microcarriers with uniform particle size and spherical integrity for sustained-release targeting transarterial chemoembolization. To determine related parameters including the ratio of cross-linking volume (sodium alginate: CaCl2),...
