General description

Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether is an epoxy resin.

Application

Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether has been used:
  • to study its effects on propiomelanocortin (POMC):enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) expression in our transgenic fish
  • to study the curing behavior, kinetics of epoxy, polyamidoamine systems and the influence of the incorporation of Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs)
  • as a thermosetting resin
  • to determine the optimum composition of the epoxy-polysiloxane blend
  • for the preparation of transparent epoxy-based nanocomposite coatings
  • for the preparation, coating and curing of epoxy-graphene (E/G)

Biochem/physiol Actions

PPARγ inhibitor that blocks rosiglitazone- and insulin-induced adipogenesis.
