Notes:
It is shown that Ca- and Al-pectate gel beads prepared by use of high molecular weight polygalacturonic acid (viz. polygalacturonic acid having a high STAUDINGER index) are well suited for cell immobilization. The pectate beads are much more insensitive to those ions and chemical agents which destructively act on alginate beads (such as phosphate, citrate, gluconate, lactate as well as a high excess of sodium, potassium, and/or ammonium ions), even without addition of gelling cations to the liquid phase.
