Ficoll is commonly used as a macromolecular constituent of vitrification solutions. Due to their dense branching, Ficolls also serve as ideal, nearly spherical molecular crowding agents.
FicollTM PM 70 is used as a macromolecular crowding agent in studies of cell volume signaling and protein refolding.It may be used in tissue engineering and macromolecular conformation research for the development, evaluation, and use of macromolecular crowding (MMC) systems and configurations. Ficoll PM-70 can also be used in vitrification research.
Application
Ficoll® PM 70 has been used:
- as a macromolecule in a comparative study to evaluate its effect in vitrification solutions
- as a supplement in the vitrification solution for the vitrification procedure of oocytes
- as a component of low serum medium for human lung fibroblast cell culture to promote a crowded environment
General description
Ficoll® PM70, a high molecular weight branched polysaccharide polymer, is believed that they do not contain any ionized groups. This sucrose-polymer is formed by the copolymerization of sucrose with epichlorhydrin.
Other Notes
A nonionic synthetic polymer of sucrose.

This study was designed to evaluate vitrification procedures for in vitro matured bovine oocytes for efficient blastocyst production after warming, IVF and culture. A second goal was to replace serum as the macromolecular component of the vitrification solution, without compromising

The non-ideal properties of solutions containing high concentrations of macromolecules can result in enormous increases in the activity of the individual macromolecules. There is considerable evidence that macromolecular crowding and confinement not only occur in cells, but that these are

Macromolecular crowding has been proposed as a mechanism by means of which a cell can sense relatively small changes in volume or, more accurately, the concentration of intracellular solutes. According to the macromolecular theory, the kinetics and equilibria of enzymes

Unfolded states of ribonuclease A were used to investigate the effects of macromolecular crowding on macromolecular compactness and protein folding. The extent of protein folding and compactness were measured by circular dichroism spectroscopy, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy in
