Bis-PEG6-acid
Bis-PEG6-acid is a symmetric bifunctional PEG linker with terminal carboxylic acid groups connected by a PEG6 spacer. The PEG chain specifically enhances water solubility, provides flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance in conjugation reactions.
Key Features
-
Symmetric PEG linker with two terminal carboxylic acids
-
PEG6 spacer for optimal solubility and flexibility
-
