- Abstract
A novel pectin‐oligochitosan hydrogel microcapsule system is reported by W. Zhang and co‐workers on page 955. This kind of microcapsule shows red‐blood‐cell‐like (biconcave) morphology. The biological applications of this system are drug encapsulation/delivery, cell encapsulation, and creating artificial red blood cells.
