M-PEG-phosphonic acid ethyl ester contains a phosphonic acid functional group (-PO3H2) attached to the middle carbon atom of a PEG chain, as well as an ethyl ester group (-COOCH2CH3) at the end of the chain.
M-PEG-phosphonic acid ethyl ester has been extensively utilized in the development of targeted drug delivery systems. Its unique chemical properties allow for the complexation of metal ions, such as iron or gadolinium, which can then be used as contrast agents in diagnostic imaging. Furthermore, M-PEG-phosphonic acid ethyl ester can be functionalized with targeting ligands, such as antibodies or peptides, to selectively deliver drugs to specific cells or tissues, enhancing therapeutic efficacy and reducing side effects.
In addition to its use in drug delivery systems, It has also been employed as a surface modifier in various biomedical applications. For example, it can be immobilized onto the surface of medical devices or implants to improve biocompatibility and reduce bacterial adhesion.
