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.
10 x CB (pH 7.2) buffer 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
3-D 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).
