Study of the diffusive properties of extracellular matrix gels used in 3D cultures
The extracellular matrix (ECM) hinders diffusion in both tissues and hydrogels used in 3D cultures. However, how geometric and non-geometric ECM properties contribute to diffusion hindrance remains poorly understood. To address this question, the effective diffusivity D of FITC-dextrans with molecul...
