Biological Activity
Product Properties
This is a photosensitive biomaterial that maintains the structural and biofunctional properties of its raw material, keratin. It can be used with a photoinitiator to crosslink and cure under blue or UV light.
KerMA Preparation:
1. The recommended concentration is 20% (w/v). Dissolve at room temperature. PBS or aqueous solutions are recommended.
2. When using this solution, avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
3. This product can be used alone or in combination with other photocurable materials. Add the blue light initiator LAP (HY-44076) to crosslink and cure at 405 nm. Crosslinking and curing are carried out under light.
