Ficoll® PM70 is a high molecular weight sucrose polymer formed by copolymerisation of sucrose with epichlorohydrin. The molecules are highly branched and the high content of hydroxyl groups leads to very good solubility in aqueous media.
Displays minimal toxicity
Favourable viscosity and osmotic properties
