General description

N,N′-Methylenebis(acrylamide) is a cross linking agent that polymerizes with acrylamide and creates cross links within the polyacrylamide gel. It is capable of creating a network rather than linear chains which helps in maintaining the firmness of gel.

Application

N,N′-Methylenebis(acrylamide) has been used in gel preparation. It has also been used as a test compound for studying the biochemical isolation of insoluble Tau in transgenic mouse models of tauopathy by examining the two main isolation methods sarkosyl and formic acid extraction.
Cross-linking agent for preparation of polyacrylamides.
