Amino-PEG16-acid
This product is a bifunctional PEG16 linker with a terminal primary amine and a carboxylic acid. The PEG16 spacer specifically provides strong hydrophilicity, flexibility, and extended spacing, making it a versatile reagent for bioconjugation, drug delivery, and advanced surface engineering.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Amine Group: Couples efficiently with carboxyls, NHS esters, and electrophiles.
-
Carboxylic Acid Group: Forms stable amide bonds with primary amines.
-
PEG16 Spacer: Ensures solubility, reduced steric hindrance, and moderate-to-long spacing.
-
High Purity: Supports reproducibility in sensitive bioconjugation workflows.
-
Dual Reactivity: Enables orthogonal and stepwise conjugation strategies.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Facilitates precise attachment of proteins, peptides, and biomolecules.
-
Drug Delivery: Improves solubility, pharmacokinetics, and stability of conjugates.
-
Surface Functionalization: Functionalizes nanoparticles, hydrogels, and polymers.
-
Material Science: Useful in PEGylated scaffolds and biomaterials.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a dry, light-protected environment.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) to preserve functional group reactivity.
This product offers extended PEG spacing with dual-reactive groups, making it an especially excellent tool for conjugation, drug delivery, and multifunctional synthetic applications.
