Abstract
Disclosed herein is a method for generating capsules with a hydrogel matrix. The method includes the steps: providing in a first chamber a dispersed aqueous phase, the dispersed aqueous phase including water and a hydrogel matrix-forming agent, in which the hydrogel matrix-forming agent is configured to form a hydrogel matrix upon exposure to a gelation inducer; providing in a second chamber a continuous oil phase, the continuous oil phase including oil and at least one first surfactant. The first and second chambers are fluidic connected by one or more channels, preferably by micro-channels. The method further includes: guiding the dispersed aqueous phase from the first chamber through the one or more channels into the second chamber to form an emulsion or dispersion of the dispersed aqueous phase in the continuous oil phase and exposing the hydrogel matrix-forming agent to a gelation inducer to form capsules with a hydrogel matrix.
