Attachin, a fusion protein with molecular weight of 30 kDa, is demonstrated to
stimulate cell attachment. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer have been
shown to be effective as the attachment surface.
Various types of cells promptly attach to the surface precoating Attachin in
half an hour, and then spread in the media with or without serum supplement.
Attachment efficiency of Attachin is better than that of collagen or
fibronectin.
Attachin has been used in the culture of smooth muscle cells and bladder
epithelium cells of dog, bone marrow stem cells of human, cartilage cells of
rabbit, mouse fibroblasts applied in artificial skin, capillary vessels,
artificial bone and joins.
Attachin also can be used in the production of vaccine and therapeutic protein
in a high cell density culture system or serum-free culture system.

Attachin - Cell
Attachment Reagent
Attachin has been
shown to stimulate cell attachment on hydrophilic cellulose material as well
as hydrophobic polymers.
Attachin enhances bioadhesive property of biomaterial, form a stable
tissue structure, so that it is a perfect intermediate between biomedical
material and cells. It can enhance attachment of epidermis, endodermis, and
cartilage cells - especially in tissue engineering - including artificial
skin, bone, cartilage, blood vessel, and other artificial tissues.
Attachin helps cells
attach and grow in tissue and promotes secretion of growth factors and
extracellular matrix making artificial tissue stable like a natural tissue.
Attachin helps to
produce vaccine and protein in high-density cell culture with microcarriers.
In a stir-bioreactor,
Attachin can help cells attach stably and promptly on microcarriers and
reduces cell damage caused by mechanical shear force.

Function
-
Attachin is demonstrated to help cell attachment, both hydrophilic
cellulose material and hydrophobic polymers have been shown to be
effective as the attachment surface.
-
Various kinds of cells promptly attach to the surface of the mentioned
materials in, and then divide in the medium with or without serum
supplement.
-
Attachin can enhance bioadhesive property of biomaterial, form a stable
tissue structure, so that it can be a good intermediate between
biomedical material and cells.

Usage and
Advantage
-
Attachin can enhance attachment of epidermis, endodermis, and cartilage
cell, especially in tissue engineering, including artificial skin, bone,
cartilage, joint, blood vessel, and other artificial tissue. Attachin
can help cell attach and grow in tissue scaffold normally and promptly,
and promote secreting growth factors and extracellular matrix, make
artificial tissue stable, like a natural tissue.
-
Attachin can take place attachment factor in serum as an additive in
serum-free medium and help produce vaccine and protein in high-density
cell culture with microcarrier. In a stir-bioreactor, Attachin can help
cell attach stably and promptly on microcarrier so as to reduce cell
damage even dying from mechanical shear force. There is no influence on
cell activity and the producing process can be shorten, so the cost will
be reduced as well. Besides, Attachin can make a less possibility of
being contaminated by pathogens or protein on condition that the
decrease in using serum, so the purification can be simplified.

Targets
-
Attachin can be used in any animal cell culture research institute,
laboratory, or in the fields of tissue engineering, artificial tissue
culture, implants, high-density cell culture, biological production,
primary culture and so
