Methacryl Elastin (ElaMA), 80-90%
ElaMA-14
Product Description
- This product is a photosensitive biomaterial derived from elastin, retaining the excellent biocompatibility and cell adhesion properties of its parent material.
- In the presence of suitable photoinitiators, the material can undergo rapid photo-crosslinking under blue light or ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, forming stable hydrogel structures.
- The degree of grafting of this product ranges from 80% to 90%, ensuring reliable photo-crosslinking performance.
- The mechanical properties of the hydrogel can be tuned by adjusting the concentration of the material, with higher concentrations typically resulting in a higher elastic modulus after curing.
- The material supports cell encapsulation and is suitable for 3D bioprinting applications, enabling the fabrication of cell-laden hydrogel constructs.
- This product is compatible with other photosensitive biomaterials, such as HAMA (hyaluronic acid methacrylate) and CSMA (chitosan methacrylate), allowing the preparation of composite bioinks with tailored properties.
