ABSTRACT:
An endocrine cell microdisk or macrodisk containing pancreatic cells for transplantation into an animal body is formed with a lateral extent much greater than its thickness to thereby enhance its diffusional capability. One or more concavities may also be formed therein to further enhance the diffusion of cellular products across the microdisk walls.
