Safety Data Sheets
Non-Functionalized Colloidal Polystyrene Microspheres
-
CV< 5% for microspheres 2 μm ~ 100 μm
-
Roundness > 0.950
-
Sodium azide can be added as an antimicrobial agent upon request.
-
Cross-linked by default with non-cross-linking option available upon request
-
Surface Chemistry
Carboxyl-terminated or non-functionalized
Other functional groups available upon request -
Provided in Milli-Q water with a trace amount of surfactant (<0.1%) that can be easily washed away
-
Concentration available to choose from: 10 - 300 mg/ml (i.e. 1 - 30 % w/v)
-
Can be easily surface-functionalized via chemical bond formation
-
Can be adapted to other common biological buffers like phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) or organic solvents like ethanol via repeated centrifugation and resuspension
-
These polystyrene microparticles might precipitate at the bottom of the containing vial over time, and this is not a sign of aggregation. Large particles precipitate faster than small particles. These particles can be easily resuspended using sonication (ultrasonic bath or ultrasonic homogenizer) or vortexing
