Properties
Description
PLL-chondroitin sulfate polylysine composite forms stable coacervates through charge interactions, combining cationic polymer's nucleic acid binding with chondroitin's biocompatibility.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→65 linked)
Source
Chemical synthesis
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Chondroitin sulfate-poly-L-lysine can be used for its potential to engineer acrylate-functionalized polymers for UV-crosslinkable hydrogels.
