PhotoHA^™ -LAP, methacrylated hyaluronic acid bioink kit, with LAP

PhotoHA^™ -LAP bioink kit consists of methacrylated hyaluronic acid (HAMA) and LAP photoinitiator. Hyaluronic acid is the most abundant glycosaminoglycan in the body being an important component of several tissues throughout the body. While it is abundant in extracellular matrices, hyaluronic acid also contributes to tissue hydrodynamics, movement and proliferation of cells, and participates in a number of cell surface receptor interactions. The photoinitiator consists of LAP to be formulated in 1X cell culture media or PBS, which allows blue light photocrosslinking of the printed structure at 405 nm. PhotoHA^™ -LAP provides native-like 3D HA gels, and the final gel stiffness can be customized by changing HA concentrations and crosslinking.
