| | Methacrylated Alginate Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | This product is a low endotoxin version alginate methacrylate ready to be used in biomedical applications.
Alginate is an anionic polysaccharide th at is widely used in pharmaceutical and biomedical applications due to its non-animal origin, low toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability. Alginate hydrogels are commonly used to fabricate tissue engineering scaffolds, bioinks for 3D bioprinting, and nanocarriers for drug & gene delivery. Due to the thermal or photochemical crosslinking of the terminal methacrylates, methacrylate-functionalized alginate can be used to prepare hydrogels resistant to matrix degradation. Properties of the resulting hydrogel (e.g., stiffness, swelling ratio, rate of degradation) can be tuned by alginate molecular weight, degree of methacrylate functionalization, and crosslink density. |
