Poly-L-Lysineis a synthetic amino acid chain that is positively charged having one hydrobromide per unit of Lysine.Poly-L-Lysineis widely used as a coating to enhance cell attachment and adhesion to both plasticware and glass surfaces. This molecule has been used to culture a wide variety of cell types. Certain cell types secrete proteases, which can digestPoly-L-Lysine. For those cell types, Poly-D-Lysine, Catalog # 5049 should be used.
The molecular weight ofPoly-L-Lysinecan vary significantly with lower molecular weight (30,000 Da) being less viscous and higher molecular weight (>300,000 Da) having more binding sites per molecule. This product’s molecular weight ranges from 70,000 to 150,000 Da yielding a solution viscosity for easy handling while providing sufficient binding sites for cell attachment.
Poly-L-Lysinesurface coatings are designed to improve cell attachment, growth and differentiation of many cell types.
Coated surfaces will often improve cell attachment in reduced or serum-free conditions. This product is supplied in a sterile 50 ml package size at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml.

Use these recommendations as guidelines todetermine the optimal coating conditions for your culture system. To maintain sterility, perform all operations in a laminar flow hood.
A typical working concentration is 0.1 mg/mL. If a different concentration is desired, transfer desired volume of solution from the bottle to a dilution vessel. Dilute to desired concentration using tissue culture grade water or PBS.
