New method for making microparticles could accelerate drug development, production of new cell strains by polymerizing through ultraviolet light

UCLA scientists have devised a method for producing intricately shaped hydrogel microparticles at a rate of more than 40 million per hour—at least 10 times faster than the current standard approach.Hydrogel microparticles hold promise for a range of uses in biomedicine, including for repairing tissue, acting as miniature versions of petri dishes for growing cells,…
