Fig. 3From: Stable and selective permeable hydrogel microcapsules for high-throughput cell cultivation and enzymatic analysisCell cultivation and lysis within microcapsules. a Microscopy images of HC-CAMs before and after cell growth. The scale bar corresponds to 200 µm. b Growth kinetics of HC-CAMs-encapsulated E. coli cells as a function of time. Data were fitted using the Gompertz equation. c Lysis efficiency of E. coli cells encapsulated in HC-CAMs was determined by cell viability upon treatment with increasing BugBuster concentration. d BugBuster induced lysis efficiency of encapsulated E. coli in microcapsules with increasing number of PSS-PAH layersBack to article page
