Echelon Biosciences is excited to announce that we have partnered with HTL Biotechnology to bring Methacrylated Hyaluronic Acid (HA-MA) to the biology research space.
HA is a naturally occurring biopolymer involved in numerous biological processes including tissue hydration and structural scaffolding. HA is increasingly used in medical, pharmaceutical and bioengineering applications such as hydrogels for use in aesthetics, ophthalmology, rheumatology, urology, wound healing, 3D bioprinting and others. The methacrylated hyaluronate is photo-crosslinkable and can be used for generating hydrogel. HTL is the world leader in the production of pharmaceutical grade Sodium Hyaluronate by fermentation, and we share their passion for developing new tools for HA and glycosaminoglycan research.
