m-PEG8-alcohol
m-PEG8-alcohol is a high-purity monofunctional PEG derivative featuring a terminal hydroxyl (-OH) group for further chemical modification or as a hydrophilic spacer in conjugation strategies. The PEG8 spacer specifically enhances solubility, improves hydrophilicity, and reduces steric hindrance, enabling efficient coupling in both aqueous and organic systems.
