Application

Recommended for cell fusion.

Reconstitution

Melt the PEG at 45 °C or higher in a waterbath. Dilute to 30-50% using sterile, pre-warmed serum-free medium (e.g., for a 50% solution add 5 mL to the 5 g vial of PEG). The pH of the solution should be slightly alkaline (pink, not orange or purple). Adjustment of the pH with sterile NaOH may be required. Store solution below 0 °C. Prolonged storage or repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended.

The pericellular matrix (PCM) surrounding chondrocytes is thought to play an important role in transmitting biochemical and biomechanical signals to the cells, which regulates many cellular functions including tissue homeostasis. To better understand chondrocytes interactions with their PCM, three-dimensional poly(ethylene

Ultrasound has potential as a non-destructive analytical technique to provide real-time online assessments of matrix evolution in cell-hydrogel constructs used in tissue engineering. In these studies, chondrocytes were encapsulated in poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels, and gel degradation was manipulated to provide

Previous studies have demonstrated that Separan AP-30, a drag-reducing polymer, significantly decreased the formation of atherosclerotic plaques in rabbits fed a high-cholesterol diet. Furthermore, Separan AP-273, a polymer similar to but longer than Separan AP-30, markedly increased cardiac output in
