QUICK LINKS

Polygalacturonic acid sodium salt is a negatively charged polysaccharide that interacts with positively charged molecules, such as proteins and metal ions, through electrostatic interactions. This interaction can be utilized to modify the properties of proteins, such as solubility and stability, or to facilitate the binding of metal ions to specific sites. Polygalacturonic acid sodium salt can form gels in the presence of calcium ions, which can be used to immobilize proteins or other biomolecules in a matrix. This property makes it useful for applications such as enzyme immobilization and cell encapsulation. The ability of polygalacturonic acid sodium salt to form gels can be exploited for controlled release of bioactive molecules.
