Description

General description

Polystyrene microparticles are stabilized colloidal particles that are anionic. They are producedby the polymerization of styrene under conditions that induce spontaneouscoalescent bead formation. Latex particles are ideal for phagocytosisexperiments, antibody-mediated agglutination diagnostics, electron microscopy,and cell counter calibration.

Application

Polystyrene latex beads have been used:

in latex particle recovery and size distribution studies
as a component of the colloidal suspensions for light extinction spectroscopy
in the quantification of microvesicles by high-sensitivity flow cytometry
