Product Description
Poly-L-Arginine is a biodegradable amino acid-based polymer ingredient composed of repeating L-arginine units, used in biotechnology, cosmetic formulations, and specialty material applications. It is supplied as a high-quality polymer powder for manufacturers developing functional biomaterials, delivery systems, and advanced formulations requiring a cationic amino acid polymer.
Unlike L-Arginine, which is a single amino acid molecule, Poly-L-Arginine is a polymer chain formed by linking multiple L-arginine molecules. Its positively charged structure provides unique interaction properties, making it valuable for research, biomaterial development, and specialized formulation applications.
Poly-L-Arginine is a synthetic polypeptide composed of L-arginine amino acid residues connected through peptide bonds. As an amino acid-derived polymer, it belongs to the class of cationic polypeptides and is widely studied for its molecular interaction and material properties.
Commercial Poly-L-Arginine is generally produced through controlled polymerization processes and supplied in different molecular weight ranges depending on application requirements. It is typically available as a white to off-white powder with defined polymer characteristics.
