Amino-PEG12-acid
This product is a bifunctional PEG12 linker with a terminal amine and a carboxylic acid. The PEG12 spacer provides extended hydrophilicity, flexibility, and moderate spacing, making it especially suitable for bioconjugation, drug delivery, and surface modification.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Amine Group: Couples efficiently with carboxyls, NHS esters, and other electrophiles.
-
Carboxylic Acid Group: Reacts with amines to form stable amide bonds.
-
PEG12 Spacer: Offers solubility, flexibility, and reduced steric hindrance.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive workflows.
-
Dual Reactivity: Supports orthogonal and multistep conjugation strategies.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Link proteins, peptides, and biomolecules with controlled PEG spacing.
-
Drug Delivery: PEGylated linker enhances solubility and pharmacokinetics.
-
Surface Functionalization: Functionalizes nanoparticles, hydrogels, or polymers.
-
Material Science: Integrates into PEGylated scaffolds for advanced systems.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a dry, light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) to maintain reactivity.
This product provides a balance of chain length and dual-reactive functionality, making it an especially versatile reagent for advanced conjugation and drug delivery applications.
