Description

Keratin methacryloyl (KerMA) is a photosensitive biomaterial that can be used to synthesize hydrogels[1].

In Vitro

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.

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
