Immobilization at Large Scale by Dispersion

  • Chapter
Immobilized Cells

Part of the book series: Springer ((SLM))

Abstract

Producing microcapsules at large scale implies first caring about the dispersion processes. The droplet solidification step (gelation, membrane formation ...) generally brings less problems (reader will refer to Chapter 3). In this chapter, four technologies of producing droplet at large scale will be proposed for cell encapsulation purposes:

  • jet breaking methods

  • LentiKat method

  • rotating devices

  • emulsification using static mixers
