3-D Life HyLink Hydrogel Component

Description 3-D Life HyLink is a component of the 3-D Life Hydrogel system. The HyLink molecule consists of hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan) carrying thiol groups along its backbone. When combined with SG-Polymers of the 3-D Life Hydrogel system, thiol groups on HyLink form stable thioether bonds with the thiol-reactive groups on the polymers, which results in the formation of the hydrogel. HyLink can be used with 3-D Life functionalized polymers SG-PVA and SG-Dextran. For using this product please consult General Protocol GP-4 "Preparation of 3-D Life Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Hydrogels" and the 3-D Life Hydrogels User Guide, which may be downloaded below. Application 3-D Life HyLink is used together with thiol-reactive SG-Polymers of the 3-D Life Hydrogel system to establish 3D cell cultures. Quantity Cat. No. L70-1: Sufficient for 1.6 ml hydrogel of a crosslinking strength of 1.2 mmol/l when used with SG-Polymers of the 3-D Life Hydrogel system. Cat. No. L70-3: Sufficient for 5 ml hydrogel
