title: Single exposure fabrication and manipulation of 3D hydrogel cell microcarriers.
abstract: We present a simple and high-throughput method for fabricating free-floating hydrogel cell microcarriers using single exposure UV patterning. We also demonstrate magnetic manipulation of the free-floating cell microcarriers using a magnetic nanoparticle-embedded structure for an active agitation and a solution exchange.
