DSPE-PEG-Azide, MW 600 is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing an azide group. The encapsulation and aggregation of hydrophobic drugs on hydrophobic DSPE makes DSPE a perfect drug delivery device. On the other hand, the hydrophilic PEG linker increases the water solubility of the formed complex, allowing drug delivery in biological fluids. The azido group can undergo click chemistry reactions with alkynes, DBCO, and BCN.
