Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Photosynthetic microalgae enable transient oxygenation in di4usion-limited 3D constructs. • Direct microalgae-animal cell co-culture improves early cell viability under hypoxic conditions. • Photosynthetic activity rapidly declines under standard animal cell culture conditions. • An intermediate cell-to-microalgae ratio (1:5) provides the most consistent transient benefit. • Co-culture outcomes are strongly a4ected by microalgal physiological variability and culture conditions.
