Investigation of Polystyrene (PS) intracellular transport by Nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) (CAT#: STEM-MB-0742-WXH)

Introduction

Polystyrene (PS) is a synthetic polymer made from monomers of the aromatic hydrocarbon styrene. Polystyrene can be solid or foamed. Polystyrene Particles have been found to have numerous applications in scientific research, diagnostics, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and nanotechnology, such as purification and separation, and lateral flow detection. Functionalized polystyrene nanoparticles and polystyrene particles can be used in a variety of applications, such as drug delivery materials, bioimaging, markers, and immunoassays. With excellent stability, high binding capacity and ultra-high specificity (low background), polystyrene latex particles have been widely verified in academic and industrial scale immunoturbidimetric assays. Polystyrene particles provide a flexible platform for diagnostic and bio-separation applications.
