m-PEG4-acid
This product is a monofunctional PEG derivative featuring a methoxy group on one end and a terminal carboxylic acid on the other. The PEG4 spacer enhances solubility, hydrophilicity, and flexibility, making it especially useful in bioconjugation, drug delivery, and material science applications.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Methoxy End Group: Provides stability and minimizes unwanted reactivity.
-
Carboxylic Acid: Couples efficiently with amines for amide bond formation.
-
PEG4 Spacer: Improves solubility and reduces steric hindrance.
-
Compact Design: Balances chain length and hydrophilicity.
-
High Purity: Ensures reliable and reproducible results.
Applications:
-
Bioconjugation: Links biomolecules via stable amide bonds.
-
Drug Delivery: Enhances solubility and circulation of PEGylated conjugates.
-
Probe Development: Builds PEG-based scaffolds for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes polymers, surfaces, and nanomaterials.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, moisture- and light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) for coupling reactions.
This product provides PEG solubility with a reactive terminal acid, making it an especially versatile reagent for conjugation and advanced material applications.
