General description

Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether is an epoxy resin.

Application

Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether has been used:
  • to study its effects on propiomelanocortin (POMC):enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) expression in our transgenic fish
  • to study the curing behavior, kinetics of epoxy, polyamidoamine systems and the influence of the incorporation of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs)
  • as a thermosetting resin
  • to determine the optimum composition of the epoxy-polysiloxane blend
  • for the preparation of transparent epoxy-based nanocomposite coatings
  • for the preparation, coating and curing of epoxy-graphene (E/G)

Biochem/physiol Actions

PPARγ inhibitor that blocks rosiglitazone- and insulin-induced adipogenesis.

Features and Benefits

This compound is featured on the Nuclear Receptors (PPARs) page of the Handbook of Receptor Classification and Signal Transduction. To browse other handbook pages, click here.

Other Notes

Epoxy resin often used in conjunction with DER 732 to form blocks of varying strength and hardness.
