Bioadhesives & recombinant ECM proteins for cell culture & related applications:Kollodis BioSciences provides mussel adhesive protein (MAP) products as stand-alone adhesives (bioadhesives), ready-to-use adhesive kits, and specialized adhesives and products for cell culture, tissue engineering, and related applications- the MAPTrix™ ECM (Extracellular Matrix) line of products.The Mussel Adhesive Protein based matrix MAPTrix™ ECM line of products are coating reagents with genetically incorporated bioactive peptides (recognition peptides) which mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) activity of collagen (MAPTrix™ C), fibronectin (MAPTrix™ F), laminin (MAPTrix™ L), vitronectin (MAPTrix™ V), cadherin (MAPTrix™ E), and heparin (MAPTrix™ H) proteins. The bioactive peptides mimic ECM proteins and provide for cell attachment, spreading and growth. The mussel adhesive protein confers biocompatible adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces. MAPTrix™ products are provided as ready-to-use aqueous coating formulations in convenient sizes (vials). Also available is our MAPTrix™ core product - recombinant mussel adhesive protein with no peptide incorporation; and, our MAPTrix HyGel™ line of products which are chemically well-defined hydrogel products for 3D cell culture and related applications
