m-PEG3-azide
m-PEG3-azide is a high-purity monofunctional polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker featuring an azide group for copper-catalyzed (CuAAC) or strain-promoted (SPAAC) azide–alkyne cycloaddition click chemistry. The PEG3 spacer specifically improves solubility, enhances flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling efficient bioconjugation in both aqueous and organic systems. This reagent is especially ideal for site-specific labeling, polymer and surface modification, and the development of multifunctional biomolecular probes.
