Abstract
⺠The effect of processing conditions on the properties of agarose beads was examined. ⺠AFM and micromanipulation was used for characterization of the particles. ⺠Pore size and mechanical strength increase with ionic strength. ⺠The same trends are observed when particles are cooled slowly. ⺠The results can be used to prepare particles with improved properties.
