Popis

General description

Acrylamide acts as a quencher of tryptophan fluorescence. Acrylamide alkylates SH groups of cysteine and ε-NH2 lysine residues of proteins during electrophoresis. Bis-acrylamide is required for crosslinking and acrylamide is vital for the polymerization of monomers. Acrylamide along with bis-acrylamide crosslinks to form polyacrylamide gels, which is used to separate protein and other biomolecules.

Acrylamide (AA) is a neurotoxin and carcinogen. Potato products like, French fries, potato chips and also several cereal-based products contains acrylamide. This highly reactive organic compound has the ability to polymerize to form polyacrylamide.

Application

Acrylamide has been used:

• for the synthesis of hydrogels
• for the preparation of polyacrylamide gel
• to agglomerate vimentin and keratin intermediate filament network

Acrylamide has been used:

• to agglomerate the vimentin and keratin intermediate filament network of K562cells
• in the preparation and characterization of soft culture substrate
• in hydrogel synthesis
• for determination of protein by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) electrophoresis
