POLY-L-ORNITHINE HYDROBROMIDE

Poly-L-ornithine hydrobromide has been used to coat coverslips in culture vessels for culturing neural progenitor cells. It has also been used to coat culture plates for culturing cerebral cells of mice.

Poly-L-ornithine is a positively charged synthetic amino acid polymer.

Poly-L-ornithine helps to improve the penetration of substances into cells. It can induce the uptake of DNA.
