Matexcel Offers a Wide Selection of Natural Materials for Research Needs

Sep 17, 2020, 18:18 PM by

Matexcel, a leading service provider in material science with the commitment to providing quality nanoparticles, graphene, and other materials for worldwide customers, now offers a wide selection of natural materials including chitosan, chitosan oligosaccharide, collagen, fibroin, hyaluronic acid, etc.

 

Biomaterials can be divided into two major categories: synthetic biomaterials and natural biomaterials. The latter has more advantages than the former, such as biocompatibility, inherent biodegradability, remodeling and key biological functions. Therefore, natural biomaterials are often used to repair or replace damaged human tissues and organs. They have the ability to adequately support cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation. For example, natural polymers have been used to prepare natural hydrogels as extracellular matrices that mimic the biological environment to bridge the gap between conventional cell cultures and the complex natural in vivo environment. Cellulose is a polysaccharide mainly found in plants that can promote bone regeneration. Another example is the silk fiber produced by spiders, whose biodegradability is well suited for applications such as surgical sutures and drug delivery.

 

In Matexcel, selection of naturally biomaterials and their derivatives includes DNA and protein-based biomaterials (collagen, gelatin, fibrin, silk, elastin) and polysaccharide-based biomaterials (cellulose, chitin/chitosan, glucose, alginate, hyaluronic acid).

“Since there is a wide range of materials and process techniques available, it is crucial to select the best possible material while minimizing the costs of manufacturing but also meet the product design requirements. We can help you solve all those problems.” Commented the official speaker from Matexcel.
