POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL (PEG 4000 (I)) is a synthetic polymer derived from petroleum that has many applications in various industries.
One of the main uses of PEG 4000 (I) is as a laxative for the treatment of constipation and fecal impaction. PEG 4000 (I) works by forming hydrogen bonds with water molecules, which prevents the reabsorption of water in the gastrointestinal tract, causing water retention in the stool and increasing osmotic pressure. This softens the stool and increases the number of bowel movements, relieving constipation. PEG 4000 (I) usually takes orally as a powder mixed with a liquid, and it has a low toxicity and high biocompatibility.
Another use of PEG 4000 (I) is as a reagent for cell fusion, especially for the production of hybridomas. Hybridomas are cells that are created by fusing a myeloma cell with a spleen cell, which can produce monoclonal antibodies. It facilitates the fusion of the cell membranes by disrupting their lipid bilayers and creating pores. PEG 4000 (I) is typically used undiluted and at a temperature of 37°C for optimal fusion efficiency.
PEG 4000 (I) also has various other uses, such as a moisture carrier, solvent, thickener, lubricant, coating, and hydrogel, also It can chemically modify to control its properties and functionality, such as its solubility, viscosity, biodegradability, and bioactivity, also It can use to deliver therapeutic biomolecules, such as drugs, proteins, and genes, by encapsulating them in PEG-based hydrogels or by attaching them to PEG chains through a process called PEGylation.
