Azido-PEG3-acid
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing a terminal azide group, a PEG3 spacer, and a carboxylic acid. It specifically enables click chemistry with alkynes and amide coupling, offering solubility, compact length, and dual reactivity.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Azide Group: Reacts with alkynes via CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry.
-
Carboxylic Acid: Couples efficiently with primary amines to form amide bonds.
-
PEG3 Spacer: Provides solubility while maintaining compact flexibility.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines click chemistry with amide coupling.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive bioconjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links azide-modified biomolecules with amine partners.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds with click and amide reactivity.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes nanoparticles, polymers, and surfaces with dual handles.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents such as DMF or DMSO; avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
