Agarose is a glial substance rich in polysaccharides

When using agarose to make food or conduct experiments, it is necessary to dissolve the agarose powder in water and heat and stir to make it dissolve evenly. With the increase of the dissolution temperature of agarose, its gel capacity will be enhanced, and finally form a solid gel. The prepared agarose gel can maintain its gel state at room temperature, and has good storage stability.

  1. Japanese scientists have recently announced the use of agarose to prepare a new type of compressed electrode material. The material has high sensitivity and efficiency, and can be used to develop high-precision pressure sensors, electronic triggers, and other applications.

  2. Research has found that agarose has anticancer effects. Scientists have shown that the polysaccharide components in agarose can regulate the function of the human immune system, enhance the body's resource allocation ability, and thus resist tumor growth and spread, exerting anticancer effects. This discovery provides new ideas for the development of new anticancer drugs.
