Polygalacturonic acid

Catalog No. T78490   CAS 25990-10-7
Synonyms: Galacturonic acid polymer

Polygalacturonic acid (Galacturonic acid polymer), a transparent colloid, constitutes a significant portion of the cell wall. It is employed in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), serving both as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent to shield cells from the harmful impacts of elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to expedite wound healing. Additionally, Polygalacturonic acid nanoparticles exhibit antibacterial properties [1] [2].

Description Polygalacturonic acid (Galacturonic acid polymer), a transparent colloid, constitutes a significant portion of the cell wall. It is employed in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), serving both as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent to shield cells from the harmful impacts of elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and to expedite wound healing. Additionally, Polygalacturonic acid nanoparticles exhibit antibacterial properties [1] [2].
In vitro Polygalacturonic acid forms a robust hydrogel that extends drug efficacy. For instance, a conjugate of polygalacturonic acid hydrogel/hyaluronate with ibuprofen mitigates epidural fibrosis in laminectomized male adult rats, enhances localized inflammation management, and diminishes ibuprofen's side effects [1]. Furthermore, at a concentration of 2% in 200 μL applied over 24 hours, the polygalacturonic acid hydrogel/hyaluronate (PGA-HA) demonstrates minimal cytotoxicity in L929 fibroblasts [1]. Additionally, nanoparticles formulated from polygalacturonic acid (PGA) combined with silver and hyaluronate (Ag-PGA/HA) within a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix exhibit antibacterial properties against both gram-positive bacteria—Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus—and the gram-negative bacterium Escherichia coli [2].
In vivo Polygalacturonic acid, when applied externally for 14 days, accelerates wound healing in albino rats with infections [2].

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the

  • Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
See Example

An example of a molarity calculation using the molarity calculator
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 10 ml of water given that the molecular weight of the compound is 197.13 g/mol?
Enter 197.13 into the Molecular Weight (MW) box
Enter 10 into the Concentration box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 10 into the Volume box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 19.713 mg appears in the Mass box

Calculate the dilution required to prepare a stock solution
The dilution calculator is a useful tool which allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentration. Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1.

See Example

An example of a dilution calculation using the Tocris dilution calculator
What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 20ml of a 50 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=50 μM, V2=20 ml and V1 is the unknown:
Enter 10 into the Concentration (start) box and select the correct unit (millimolar)
Enter 50 into the Concentration (final) box and select the correct unit (micromolar)
Enter 20 into the Volume (final) box and select the correct unit (milliliter)
Press calculate
The answer of 100 microliter (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (start) box

Definitions of molecular mass, molecular weight, molar mass and molar weight:
Molecular mass (molecular weight) is the mass of one molecule of a substance and is expressed n the unified atomic mass units (u). (1 u is equal to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon-12)
Molar mass (molar weight) is the mass of one mole of a substance and is expressed in g/mol.
