This work focuses on the creation of a new biocompatible reactor allowing the encapsulaion and the study of electroactive bacteria. Made by co-extrusion, this millimeter bioreactor is a liquid core capsule with a conducting hydrogel membrane. To create such an object, we formulate a composite hydrogel of alginate/carbon nanotubes in two steps. The first step is rapid and creates the hydrogel matrix by diffusion of divalent ions inside the alginate/carbon nanotubes mix. The second step is slower and permits the dialysis of the surfactant used to stabilize the nanotubes. During this last step, the carbone nanotube network percolates, creating a conducting network in the hydrogel for sufficient nanotube contents (above 0.5 %). This composite m...
