Product Information
| Description: | Poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) is a blank slate hydrogel that gels rapidly at room temperature in the presence of a photoinitiator and light. PEGDA hydrogels are potent tools for uncovering basic cellular biology. PEGDA is an emerging scaffold for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine since polymerization can occur rapidly at room temperature, requires low energy input, has high water content, is elastic, and can be customized to include a variety of biological molecules. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
