3-D Life SG-PVA Hydrogel Component
Description 3-D Life SG-PVA is a component of the 3-D Life Hydrogel system. It contains polyvinyl alcohol functionalized with thiol-reactive groups (SG-PVA). It can be used together with PEG-Link (Cat. No. L50-1 or L50-3) or CD-Link (Cat. No. L60-1 or L60-3) to set up slow gelling, cell-compatible hydrogels. Included 10x CB Buffer (pH 7.2) allows control of pH and osmotic conditions during gel formation in the presence of cells. For more information and instructions, please consult the General Protocol GP-2 "Preparation of 3-D Life Slow Gelling Hydrogels" and the 3-D Life Hydrogels User Guide, which may be downloaded below. Application 3D cell cultures; embedment and immobilization of cells or tissues Quantity Allows formation of up to 6 ml 3-D Life Hydrogel depending on the stiffness of the gel, if used together with thiol-functionalized polymers (3-D Life PEG-Link or CD-Link). Components Material Quantity Concentration of reactive groups SG-PVA 3 x 170 µl 30 mmol/L MSDS 10x
