Cholesterol-PEG-Amine(CLS-PEG-NH2), MW 1K, is a high-quality, water-soluble, biocompatible polymer that combines the advantageous properties of cholesterol and polyethylene glycol (PEG) with a reactive amine functional group.
The cholesterol moiety imparts lipophilic characteristics, enabling self-assembly in aqueous environments and facilitating interaction with lipid membranes. PEG, a hydrophilic polymer, offers stealth properties by reducing nonspecific binding and improving solubility. The amine functional group at the distal end of the PEG chain provides a site for straightforward conjugation to various biomolecules, including proteins, peptides, and small molecules.
Cholesterol-PEG-Amine, MW 1K has found extensive utility in drug delivery systems, such as liposomes, micelles, and nanoparticles. Cholesterol PEG Amine uses can lead to enhanced stability, prolonged circulation time, reduced immunogenicity, and targeted delivery. Furthermore, this reagent is suitable for surface modification and bioconjugation strategies, enabling the development of multifunctional carriers and therapeutics.
