Paraformaldehyde; Used In A Variety of Industry Verticals for A Range of Applications

 

Paraformaldehyde Market
Paraformaldehyde

Paraformaldehyde is the informal name of polyoxymethylene, a polymer of formaldehyde (also known by many other. It is a polymerized form of formaldehyde and we can say it is a solid polymer of formaldehyde. Paraformaldehyde has documented uses as a disinfectant, fungicide, fixation reagent and in the preparation of formaldehyde. It is a polymer form of formaldehyde, and can be used for same applications as aqueous formaldehyde solutions. It is commercially sold based on its purity; the higher the purity, the more expensive it is.

According to Coherent Market Insights the Paraformaldehyde Market Size, Share, Trends, and Forecast, 2022-2028.

Paraformaldehyde is used in a wide range of applications, such as paint industry, agricultural chemicals, chemical industry, pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, organic chemical syntheses, printing & photography, consumer goods, fluorescent lights, cleaning products, dyestuff, embalming preparations, personal care products, special plasticizers, intermediate additives/compounds, and more. It is also used as a disinfectant, waterproofing agent, and hardening agent, as well as to prepare adhesives, resins and in dentistry as an antiseptic.

Paraformaldehyde is often used in the production of many thermosetting resins, together with melamine, phenol, resorcinol, urea, and other similar reagents. Moreover, paraformaldehyde (PFA) is widely used as a cross-linking fixation agent. It has been empirically recognized in a gold standard protocol that the PFA concentration for cell fixation, C PFA, is 4%. In addition to its use as a fixative for tissues or cells, PFA is also used or to generate hardening agents, disinfectants, adhesives, thermoplastics, and as an antiseptic.

In dentistry, paraformaldehyde is used as a root canal treatment material. PFA can be used as a substitute of formalin to produce resinous binding material, which is commonly used together with melamine, urea, phenol, tannin, resorcinol, or other reactants to manufacture fibreboard, plywood, and particle board. Thus, there is an increasing demand for paraformaldehyde across the globe, especially in the United States, Europe, and Asia Pacific.

Bispecific Antibodies Are Used As Therapeutic Drugs While Treating Viral Infections, Oncology, And Auto-Immune Diseases

Image
  Bispecific Antibodies Bispecific antibodies are produced through cell fusion or recombinant DNA technologies. Bispecific antibodies are much more specific than monoclonal antibodies. Their applications in tumor immunotherapy are nearly limitless. As of today, seven bispecific antibodies have been approved by the FDA and EMA and over one hundred are in preclinical testing. Bispecific antibodies were initially developed using the quadroma technology. They contain two distinct antigen-binding arms, which enable them to bind to the target antigen while also activating an effector cell, which kills tumor cells. The primary antigen on the surface of the effector cell is called CD3, which is a popular target of immune cells. According to Coherent Market insights the Bispecific Antibodies Market Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022-2028. Many of these multi specific antibody formats have been developed over the past 30 years. These categories ...
