General description
Polyvinylpyrrolidone is a large polymer containing a carbonyl, C-N and alkyl functional groups.
Application
Polyvinylpyrrolidone has been used:
- to perform intracytoplasmic sperm injection procedure
- in the preparation of endophyte coating agent mixture, to coat creeping bentgrass seed
- as a component of prehybridization solution
Biochem/physiol Actions
Polyvinylpyrrolidone can bind to polyphenol. Thus, it is known to be used for RNA isolation from plants rich in polyphenols. It is extensively used in the synthesis of nanoparticles.
