Acid-PEG2-SS-PEG2-acid CAS:1807539-10-1 is a molecule that contains two PEG (polyethylene glycol) chains separated by a disulfide bond. The disulfide bond is a functional group that is susceptible to reduction under certain conditions, such as the presence of reducing agents. This property makes Acid-PEG2-SS-PEG2-acid useful in the design of drug delivery systems that can be triggered to release their cargo in response to changes in the environment, such as the presence of glutathione, a reducing agent found in cells. The PEG chains serve to increase the water solubility and stability of the molecule and can also reduce its immunogenicity.Acid-PEG2-SS-PEG2-acid has potential applications in the development of targeted drug delivery systems that can enhance the efficacy and safety of pharmaceuticals.
