Other Notes
The methacrylate-functionalization of heparin allows thermal or photochemical crosslinking via covalent conjugation. Heparins exhibit high anionic charge densities to promote large swelling ratios in water. Heparin-based bioinks are used in tissue engineering, 3D bio-printing, and drug delivery applications.
Gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) is a polymerizable hydrogel material derived from natural extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Due to its low cost, abundance, and retention of natural cell binding motifs, gelatin has become a highly sought material for tissue engineering applications. The addition of photocrosslinkable methacrylamide functional groups in GelMA allows the synthesis of biocompatible, biodegradable, and non-immunogenic hydrogels that are stable in biologically relevant conditions and promote cell adhesion, spreading, and proliferation.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a linear polysaccharide of alternating D-glucuronic acid/N-acetyl-D-glucosamine found primarily in connective tissues. HA-based hydrogels are prevalent in tissue engineering, 3D bioprinting, and drug delivery applications. The methacrylate (MA) functionalized hyaluronic acid is photo-cross-linkable.
Low Endotoxin, low bioburden: Endotoxins can negatively impact cellular growth, morphology, differentiation, inflammation, and protein expression. The bioburden is the number of contaminated organisms found in a given amount of material.
We test each lot for endotoxins in addition to total bioburden (aerobic and fungal) to minimize unwanted interactions. For more information: Cell Culture FAQs: Bacterial Endotoxin Contamination
