Abstract
A cell culture microcarrier includes a polymer formed from copolymerization of a mixture including (i) an uncharged hydrophilic unsaturated monomer having a hydroxyl group; (ii) a hydrophilic carboxylic acid containing unsaturated monomer; and (iii) a hydrophilic multifunctional unsaturated monomer. The microcarrier may further include a polypeptide, such as a polypeptide that promotes cell adhesion, conjugated to the surface of the microcarrier; e.g. via the carboxyl group from the hydrophilic carboxylic acid containing unsaturated monomer.
