1. A method for organoid production, comprising co-culturing mammalian cells and a carrier for three-dimensional (3D) mammalian cell culture, the carrier comprising microcapsules each having a wall containing gelatin and a natural polymer, surrounding a core containing an oil, and dextrin palmitate as an oil thickener, to produce organoids, wherein
the natural polymer is one or more selected from the group consisting of Arabic gum, hyaluronic acid, guar gum, pectin, xanthan gum, locust bean gum, tamarind gum, tragacanth gum, gum ghatti, locust bean gum, Konjac gum, agar, Carragheenan, furcellaran, and gellan, and wherein
the oil is one or more selected from the group consisting of olive oil, camellia oil, castor oil, palm oil, Jojoba oil, almond oil, grapeseed oil, herbal oil, rose oil, coconut oil, moringa oil, rice bran oil, apricot kernel oil, sunflower oil, meadowfoam seed oil, Abyssinian oil, and squalane.
