Reversibility in the Physical Properties of Agarose Gels following an Exchange in Solvent and Non-Solvent

Agarose forms a homogeneous thermoreversible gel in an aqueous solvent above a critical polymer concentration. Contrary to the prevailing consensus, recent confirmations indicate that agarose gels are also stable in non-solvents like acetone and ethanol. A previous study compared gel characterisatio...
