Molecular weight (Mw) and Polydispersity (Pd):
Standards | PS-OBG-UH-2000 | PS-OBG-UH-2500 |
Mw X 10-5 |
20.0 | 25.0 |
Pd | 1.1 | 1.1 |
Weight average molecular weight Mw was determined by Viscotek triple detector array system equipped with size exclusion chromatography, light scattering detector using a 90 angle geometry dn / dc = 0.146
Method of dissolution:
1. Measure a specified amount of standards in a sample bottle;
2. Add distilled water and dissolve it at 60℃ for 15-30minutes, stir the water gently until they dissolve homegeneously with the water;
3. Filtrate the solution with a 0.45 μm filter and a standard solution will be obtained.
Storage:
1. Store dry at room temperature in well sealed containers. Under these conditions, the product is stable for several years.
2. When in a liquid state, keep it in a refrigerator at 4℃. If filtrated with a 0.45 μm filter and added 0.02 wt% sodium azide as an antiseptic, it can be preserved at 4℃ for 2 months.
