The integration of the biocompatibility of collagen and the remote-control ability of magnetic elements serves as both a cell scaffold and an actuator. We studied the preparation, characterization, and potential applications of collagen–magnetic particle composite microbeads (CMPMBs). The interplay among collagen concentration, particle size, and surface roughness was found to influence cell adhesion and proliferation. Adsorption and desorption tests showed the reversible attachment of the particles to magnetic sheets, enabling precise spatial control and targeted cell delivery. The particles demonstrated their utility as cell carriers, supporting cell migration and proliferation. These findings showcase the potential of CMPMBs as a promising platform for advanced cell delivery and tissue regeneration applications. The ability to fine-tune particle properties and manipulate them using magnetic fields offers new possibilities for creating complex tissue constructs and controlling cellular behavior, which could contribute to the development of more effective regenerative therapies and tissue engineering approaches.
