lambda-Carrageenan (Low-viscosity) from TCI, product code C2871, is a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from red seaweed. Its molecules are built from galactose units that carry many sulfate groups. The material belongs to glycoscience and chemical biology. In research laboratories it is used to study the behaviour of charged polysaccharides and how carbohydrates interact with proteins. In pharmacology it is widely used to induce inflammation in experimental animal models, which makes it an important tool for testing the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of drug candidates and natural product extracts.

There are three main types of carrageenan: kappa, iota, and lambda. Lambda-carrageenan does not form a gel, which sets it apart from the other two. Its high degree of sulfation makes it more readily soluble, and it produces viscous solutions without gelling. This low-viscosity grade is easier to dissolve, pipette, and inject, which matters when a solution must be homogeneous and dosed at a precise volume. Because carrageenan comes from a natural polymer, consistency between lots is a key concern. Sourcing it from an established reagent manufacturer such as TCI helps keep research results reproducible.

In Indonesian laboratories, lambda-carrageenan is mainly used in pharmacology and pharmacy departments, natural product research groups, and biomedical laboratories. Researchers there evaluate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic potential of synthetic compounds and plant extracts. Glycoscience and biochemistry groups also use it to study polysaccharide properties and carbohydrate–protein interactions. Each of these settings needs a reagent from a recognised manufacturer with reliable lot-to-lot consistency. This low-viscosity grade also simplifies routine solution preparation for teaching and research.

Grade: Low-viscosity lambda-carrageenan (non-gelling, highly sulfated polysaccharide)

Keep lambda-carrageenan in its original, tightly closed container in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight, unless the TCI label or Safety Data Sheet gives specific conditions. Polysaccharides take up moisture readily, so reseal the container promptly after each use and avoid leaving it open in humid air. Use clean, dry spatulas when weighing to prevent contamination. Wear standard laboratory protective equipment, including gloves, a lab coat, and safety glasses. Avoid creating or inhaling dust. Prepare solutions fresh where practical, and handle and dispose of all material in line with your institution's safety procedures and the product Safety Data Sheet.
