TRGEL LLC Information

This novel polymer of glucose is our passion and our dedication. Its rich chemistry of biocompatible materials includes thermoresponsive hydrogels with tunable gelation temperatures. Our customers apply our gels to a range of biomedical applications. We support them with sterile, non-pyrogenic, defined materials, technical expertise, and development services. Glucose polymers (cellulose, starch) are the most abundant polymers in the world. Poly(2-3)glucose is unique in its structure and in its ability to be engineered. While cellulose and starch are polysaccharides, poly(2-3)glucose is a polyether. While cellulose and starch have large polydispersities and regio non-specific substituents, poly(2-3)glucose is practically monodisperse and regio specific. The result is defined composition and properties that make us smile. TRGel
