NumberingSHWE-HSB

Product Overviews

Product Overview
SHWE-HSB is isolated from microalgae. The major composition of SHWE-HSB is polysaccharide polymer and is capable of promoting cell adhesion and cellular proliferation. Compared to other extracellular matrices which is composed of polypeptide (RGD) or protein (fibronectin, laminin, etc.), it is thermostable (up to 100°C) and stable between pH 2 and pH12. Based on the NMR analysis, SHWE-HSB is a single polymer with negative charge, and the molecule weight is between 280 to 320KD.

Application
Acts like an extracellular matrix to support cell attachment to plastic dish.
An attachment factor for others adherent cells
Support stem cells to grow in 3D cultures such as hydrogels
 
Features and Advantages
Improve cell culture performance
Plant-based, animal component-free
Repeatable and reliable results
Maintain cellular morphology
High quality and high proliferation yield
