Abstract:Polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) capsules/beads are very important for biotechnological applications such as drug delivery and bacterial whole‐cell biocatalyst development. The very beam‐sensitive bio‐polymer capsules are laboratory produced as a uniform with a controlled shape, size, membrane thickness, permeability and mechanical resistance [1]. PEC capsules are very sensitive to any treatment and samples could be inspected in their fully native and functional state to prevent any misinterpretation. Characteriz… Show more
