Fig. 5

An unordered ensemble of ~600 microspheres was implanted into agarose. a Retrieval of the polyethylene glycol constructs from the mold. Note the omission of a supporting array structure, here replaced by a simple polyethylene glycol base. b Implantation tool held by hand for perspective. c The ensemble of microspheres implanted into agarose gel, which is displayed from a side view. d Reconstruction of the microsphere ensemble in agarose by confocal fluorescence microscopy displayed from a top view. Scale bars in c and d measure 500 µm
