3-D Life FG-PVA (Fast Gelling Polymers)

- Overview
  - 3-D Life FG-PVA is a component of the 3-D Life Hydrogel system. It contains maleimide-functionalized polyvinyl alcohol (Mal-PVA). It can be used together with PEG-Link (Cat. No. L50-1 or L50-3) or CD-Link (Cat. No. L60-1 or L60-3) to set up fast gelling, cell-compatible hydrogels.
    10 x CB (pH 5.5) buffer allows control of pH and osmotic conditions during gel formation in the presence of cells. For more information and instructions, please consult the General Protocol GP-1 "Preparation of 3-D Life Fast Gelling Hydrogels" and the 3-D Life Hydrogels User Guide.
