| Description | Inquire | EPOCROSTM is a reactive polymer with an oxazoline group on the side chain and is used as a cross-linking agent for water-based resins. Among the water-based polymers developed to address environmental issues and the increasing use of water-based products due to VOC regulations and desolventing, the EPOCROSTM is a reactive polymer with an oxazoline group on the side chain and is used as a cross-linking agent for water-based resins. Among the water-based polymers developed to address environmental issues and the increasing use of water-based products due to VOC regulations and desolventing, the EPOCROSTM WS series is a “water-soluble type” with the following structure.Features and PropertiesHigher reactivity than water-based epoxy, melamine, blocked isocyanateVOC free (EPOCROS™ WS-300 and EPOCROS™ WS-700)High crosslinking density with a small amount addedOne-pack type with long usage timeImproves water resistance, solvent resistance, heat resistance, and the strength of films, etc.Adhesion-imparting possible to PET, OPP, PVC, etc.Fast dryingLow toxicity (Ames Test: Negative, Primary Skin Irritation Test: No irritation)WS Series Product LineupApplicationsNonwoven fabric bindersPigment printingCoatings (metals, films, leather)Paint and coatings, Primers (plastics, building materials, vehicles)AdhesivesMethodASSAY for Product Code DILW:One unit equals a decrease in absorbance of 1.0 per minute at 25°C at pH 7.5 with 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenol as the chromogen.Reagents0.2 M Tris⋅HCl buffer, pH 7.50.006 M NADH.

Stimulates AMPK phosphorylation and activation in the liver and the skeletal muscle, enhancing glucose utilization and fatty-acid combustion. Antagonizes TNF-alpha by negatively regulating its expression in various tissues such as liver and macrophages, and also by counteracting its effects. Inhibits endothelial NF-kappa-B signaling through a cAMP-dependent pathway. May play a role in cell growth, angiogenesis and tissue remodeling by binding and sequestering various growth factors with distinct binding affinities, depending on the type of complex, LMW, MMW or HMW.Post-translationalHydroxylated Lys-33 was not identified in PubMed:16497731, probably due to poor representation of the N-terminal peptide in mass fingerprinting. HMW complexes are more extensively glycosylated than smaller oligomers. Hydroxylation and glycosylation of the lysine residues within the collagene-like domain of adiponectin seem to be critically involved in regulating the formation and/or secretion of HMW complexes and consequently contribute to the insulin-sensitizing activity of adiponectin in hepatocytes. O-glycosylated. Not N-glycosylated. O-linked glycans on hydroxylysines consist of Glc-Gal disaccharides bound to the oxygen atom of post-translationally added hydroxyl groups. Sialylated to varying degrees depending on tissue. Thr-22 appears to be the major site of sialylation. Higher sialylation found in SGBS adipocytes than in HEK fibroblasts. Sialylation is not required neither for heterodimerization nor for secretion. Not sialylated on the glycosylated hydroxylysines. Desialylated forms are rapidly cleared from the circulation...
