Azido-PEG8-amine
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG8 linker with a terminal azide for click chemistry and a primary amine for amide coupling. The PEG8 spacer provides hydrophilicity, flexibility, and moderate spacing, making it especially suitable for bioconjugation, drug delivery, and surface modification.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Azide Group: Enables CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry with alkyne partners.
-
Amine Group: Couples efficiently with carboxyls, NHS esters, and electrophiles.
-
PEG8 Spacer: Balances solubility, flexibility, and steric accessibility.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive workflows.
-
Dual Reactivity: Supports orthogonal and stepwise conjugation strategies.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Enables efficient dual labeling of proteins, peptides, and biomolecules.
-
Click Chemistry: Azide–alkyne ligation for bioorthogonal conjugation.
-
Drug Delivery: PEGylated linker enhances solubility, stability, and pharmacokinetics.
-
Surface Functionalization: Functionalizes nanoparticles, polymers, and hydrogels.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a dry, light-protected environment.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) to preserve azide and amine reactivity.
This product provides dual-reactive groups with a medium-length PEG spacer, making it an especially versatile tool for orthogonal conjugation and advanced material science.
