Advanced Biomatrix Poly-L-Lysine, Solution, 0.1 mg/mL
Supplier: Advanced Biomatrix 504850ML
Poly-L-Lysine comes with 50 mL of a 0.1 mg/ml sterile-filtered solution. Poly-L-Lysine is a synthetic amino acid chain that is positively charged and widely used as a coating to enhance cell attachment and adhesion to both plasticware and glass surfaces. This product’s molecular weight ranges from 70,000 to 150,000 Da yielding a solution viscosity for easy handling while providing sufficient binding sites for cell attachment. Poly-L-Lysine is a synthetic amino acid chain that is positively charged having one hydrobromide per unit of Lysine. This molecule has been used to culture a wide variety of cell types. Certain cell types secrete proteases, which can digest Poly-L-Lysine. For those cell types, Poly-D-Lysine, Catalog # 5049 should be used. Poly-L-Lysine surface coatings are designed to improve cell attachment, growth and differentiation of many cell types. Coated surfaces will often improve cell attachment in reduced or serum-free conditions.
