Sephadex G 25(CAS: 9041-35-4)

Sephadex G 25 (CAS: 9041-35-4) is a hydroxyalkylated dextran-based matrix, typically in a cross-linked form. It has a molecular weight of approximately 250 kDa. The compound is insoluble in water and most organic solvents but is partially soluble in aqueous solutions. It exhibits moderate chemical reactivity due to its hydroxyl groups, which can participate in various chemical reactions under appropriate conditions.

Sephadex G 25 (CAS: 9041-35-4) is synthesized through a process involving the cross-linking of dextran with a divinyl sulfone (DVS) cross-linker. This process typically results in a highly cross-linked network that provides the necessary mechanical stability. The synthesis involves a stepwise addition of DVS and subsequent cross-linking under controlled conditions to achieve the desired properties.

Sephadex G 25 (CAS: 9041-35-4) is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry for chromatography and drug purification. It is also utilized in the polymer industry for controlled release applications. Additionally, it finds applications in sensors for detecting various analytes and in semiconductors for microfabrication processes.

When handling Sephadex G 25 (CAS: 9041-35-4), it is important to use personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection. Work should be conducted in a well-ventilated area or a fume hood. Spills should be carefully cleaned up using appropriate absorbent materials. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed guidelines on safe handling and disposal.
