多聚蔗糖70，Ficoll® PM 70；Type 70, mol wt~70,000

Ficoll^® PM70, a high molecular weight branched polysaccharide polymer, is believed that they do not contain any ionized groups. This sucrose-polymer is formed by the copolymerization of sucrose with epichlorhydrin.

 

Ficoll^® PM 70 has been used:

• as a macromolecule in a comparative study to evaluate its effect in vitrification solutions
• as a supplement in the vitrification solution for the vitrification procedure of oocytes
• as a component of low serum medium for human lung fibroblast cell culture to promote a crowded environment

Ficoll is commonly used as a macromolecular constituent of vitrification solutions. Due to their dense branching, Ficolls also serve as ideal, nearly spherical molecular crowding agents.

Ficoll^TM PM 70 is used as a macromolecular crowding agent in studies of cell volume signaling and protein refolding.[1]It may be used in tissue engineering and macromolecular conformation research for the development, evaluation, and use of macromolecular crowding (MMC) systems and configurations. Ficoll PM-70 can also be used in vitrification research.
