Poly-DL-ornithine hydrobromide
Poly-DL-ornithine hydrobromide (CAS: 82682-33-5) is a synthetic polypeptide. It is a homopolymer of the amino acid ornithine, typically supplied with a molecular weight range of 15,000-30,000 Da. This reagent is valuable in biochemical research for its polycationic nature, finding use in cell culture studies and as a tool in molecular biology applications. Stored at -20°C, it is supplied by Tech Serve Solutions for laboratory and research purposes.
Cell Culture Additive
As a polycationic polymer, Poly-DL-ornithine hydrobromide can enhance cell attachment and spreading in vitro. It is often used to coat surfaces for cell culture, promoting adherence of cells that might otherwise struggle to attach.
Gene Delivery Research
Its positive charge allows it to complex with negatively charged nucleic acids like DNA and RNA. This property is explored in research settings for the non-viral transfection of genetic material into cells.
Biochemical Research Reagent
Poly-DL-ornithine hydrobromide serves as a versatile tool in various biochemical investigations. Its specific properties are leveraged in studies concerning protein interactions, polymer behaviour, and biophysical characterisation.
