Biological Activity

[Description]:

Gellan gum is a linear microbial exopolysaccharide that can be used as a cell scaffold for both soft tissue and load bearing applications. Gellan gum has many advantages such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, nontoxic in nature, and physical stability in the presence of cations[1][2].
