Supplier:  Cytiva 17089109

Catalog No. 45-001-794

Description

• Composed of colloidal silica coated with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)
• Used for separation of cells, subcellular particles and larger viruses under gentle conditions which preserve viability and morphological integrity of cells
• Low viscosity density gradient medium reduces required centrifugal force
• Nontoxic to cells
• Compatible to ionic strength and pH
• Gradients can either be preformed or created by centrifugation at moderate speeds in an angle-head rotor
• Gradients are iso-osmotic throughout and cover a range of densities up to 1.3g/mL
• Buffered within the pH range 5.5 to 10.0 without any changes in properties

• Conductivity (mS/m): max. 100
• Osmolality (mOsm/kg H₂O): max. 25
• Viscosity (cP): max 15
