Alginates are marine polysaccharides known for their ability to selectively bind calcium ions and form hydrogels. They are widely used in biomedical applications but are challenging to produce as nanogels. Here we introduce a self-assembly route to create stable alginate-based nanogels under near-equilibrium conditions. Guluronate (G) blocks, which interact with divalent cations such as Ca
