Agarose, abbreviated as AG, is the uncharged neutral component of agar.
Simply put, by removing the agaropectin from the agar, the remaining part is agarose.
Agarose is an organic substance with the chemical formula C24H38O19, a white or yellow bead-like gel particle or powder, which is a linear polymorph.
Molecular weight: 630.5471
CAS No. :9012-36-6

Agar is composed of agarose and agaropectin.
Agarose is a linear polymorph and agaropectin is a heterogeneous mixture of many smaller molecules.
They are structurally similar, but carry sulfate and carboxyl components and have poor gelation ability.
Agarose gels are gels prepared with agarose as a supporting medium. Agarose is divided into general agarose and low-melting agarose with a reduced melting point after chemical modification. The melting point of agarose is between 62 and 65°C, and it can be maintained in a liquid state for several hours at 37°C after melting and solidifies into gel at 30°C. It is mostly used for in situ digestion of chromosomal DNA and DNA fragment recovery within the gel. Agarose gels are often used for the separation of large molecules of proteins and DNA due to their large pore size.
Agarose is often used in biochemistry laboratories as a semi-solid support in techniques such as electrophoresis and chromatography for the separation and analysis of biological macromolecules or small molecules.
Agarose has a special stabilizing effect because of its special gelling properties, especially significant solidity, hysteresis and hysteresis, and easy absorption of water; it has been widely used in the fields of food, medicine, chemical industry, textile, national defense, etc..
According to incomplete statistics, agar and agarose have more than 1000 kinds of uses, and are internationally known as "novel East Asian products".
Due to its good biocompatibility, it is also widely used for the production of biological separation media.
