I am trying to find a viscous solution that can suspend alginate beads / prevent them from settling. I thought that a saturated solution of sucrose might do the job, however, I am uncertain whether or not it will dissolve it.

Dear Sir,
I think the key factor is the ionic strength, so if sucarose has an effect on the ionic strength then one may expect solubility. Some valuable information are in the attached files. Regards

Dear Andrew,
did you use glutaraldehyde to prepare alginate beads? If yes, your alginate beads will not dissolved in sucrose solution.
