Ald-benzoylamide-PEG3-CH2 acid
Ald-benzoylamide-PEG3-CH2 acid is a high-purity heterobifunctional PEG linker with an aldehyde for chemoselective oxime or hydrazone ligation and a terminal carboxylic acid specifically for amide bond formation with amines. The PEG3 spacer especially improves solubility, flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling efficient, orthogonal bioconjugation in aqueous and organic systems.
