Cat. No.: HY-D0180 Purity: 98.30%
SDS COA Handling Instructions

18-Crown-6-ether (18C6; 1,4,7,10,13,16-Hexaoxacyclooctadecane) is an organic compound that can be used to prepare stable microcapsule responsive layers for further assembly into bilayer microcapsules. For example, 18-Crown-6-ether is used to prepare the response layer and is coated with a G-quadruplex cross-linked hydrogel layer stabilized by K+; when Mg2+ ions are present, 18-Crown-6-ether and K+ ions can respectively Dissociates and locks with the G-quadruplex cross-linked layer, thereby achieving switchable controlled release of the load.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
