General description
Sodium alginate is a natural linear polysaccharide derived from brown algae made up of blocks of B-D-mannuronate (M) and a-L-guluronate (G). Guluronate blocks that bind Ca2+ cations to form ionic bonds. Poly(guluronate) is isolated from alginate which can be used alone as a stabilizer or further modified to create additional functional groups.
Application
Sodium Alginate based hydrogels are widely used in tissue engineering, 3D bioprinting, and drug delivery applications.
Features and Benefits
- Sterile, low endotoxin
- Batch control offers reproducible models for preclinical toxicology testing and drug screening
- Extended shelf-life & stability
Storage Class
11 - Combustible Solids
