Influence of compression speed and deformation percentage on mechanical properties of calcium alginate particles

Abstract: Hydrogel particles are often used as a carrier for immobilization of enzymes, polyphenolic antioxidants, whole microbial, plant or mammalian cells. In many processes, mechanical properties of alginate particles are essential due to their exposure to mechanical forces in production process. Determination and improvement of hydrogels mechanical properties is very important in prevention of the undesirable side effects during the manufacturing process and product application. The aim of this stu… Show more

“…Compression tests of single beads submerged in distilled water were performed using Universal Testing Machine, AG-Xplus (Shimadzu, Japan), equipped with a 100 N force load cell (force range from 0.01 to 100 N). The compression was performed up to 30% sample deformation (ratio of displacement to initial bead diameter) at a compression speed of 1 mm/min and ambient temperature of 25 ± 1 ∘ C according to the method described in a previous work [30]. During the compression test, a single bead was submerged in distilled water in a Petri dish and placed on a flat plate.…”

“…Mechanical strength and elastic modulus of the alginate beads were determined with the aim to define the mechanical stability of the beads which could be of great significance for their application in foods, pharmaceutical products, and biomedical engineering. The mechanical stability of alginate beads has been assessed so far by using different compression tests (Moresi & Bruno, 2007; Obradovic et al., 2015; Tomović, Trifković, Rakin, Rakin, & Bugarski 2015; Wang et al., 2006). In this paper, beads were subjected to a compression assay following the method previously described by Tomović et al.…”
