DBCO-PEG9-DBCO
DBCO-PEG9-DBCO is a high-purity homobifunctional PEG linker with dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) groups at both ends for rapid, copper-free strain-promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) click chemistry. The PEG9 spacer enhances solubility, flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling efficient crosslinking or conjugation of azide-functionalized biomolecules and materials in aqueous and organic systems. This reagent is especially ideal for bioconjugation, polymer modification, and nanoparticle functionalization.
