Abstract
There is provided a production method for a microcapsule in which cells are encapsulated with alginic acid and a polycation, the method including dropwise adding a cell suspension containing cells and alginic acid into a calcium ion-containing solution to obtain a liquid droplet in which the cells are encapsulated in alginic acid, and immersing the liquid droplet in a coating liquid containing a polycation, to obtain the microcapsule, where the coating liquid contains a calcium ion or a barium ion at a concentration of 0.1 mM or more and 50.0 mM or less. According to the production method of the present invention, it is possible to produce a microcapsule having a uniform shape and particle size.
