N n methylene bisacrylamide mbam

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

N,N′-Methylene bisacrylamide (MBAM) is a chemical compound used as a cross-linking agent in various laboratory applications. It is a white crystalline solid that is soluble in water and other polar solvents. MBAM is commonly used in the preparation of polyacrylamide gels, which are widely employed in techniques such as electrophoresis and gel chromatography.

Photocrosslinkable PNIPAAm Hydrogel Synthesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Photocrosslinkable PNIPAAm was synthesized using the free-radical polymerization method. 100mg of N-isopropylacrylmide monomer (NIPAAm) (Sigma Aldrich, USA) was dissolved in 0.6 ml of deionized water to preparing a pre-gel solution. In this monomer solution, 1mg of 2-hydroxy-1-[4-(hydroxyethoxy)phenyl]-2methyl-1-propanone (Sigma Aldrich, Iragacure 2959, USA) was added as a photoinitiator. In this study, two different concentrations of crosslinker (C1 and C3) were use: 1 mg and 3 mg of N,N’-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAm) (Sigma Aldrich, USA) were dissolved in 0.1 ml of deionized water.
The 700 μl pre-gel solution was poured into a Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) (Dow Corning Corp., USA) mould. Then, 1mm supporting beams were installed along the PDMS mould wall for height equalization. The solution covered with a film was irradiated for 8 min with 365nm UV light (VIRVER Lourmat-4.L, France). In the illuminated regions, free radicals leads to polymerization.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
