Properties
Description
Acrylate-PEG-mannose, alternatively named mannose-PEG-acrylate, is a conjugate designed for research, created by attaching mannose to a 750 Da PEG linker with an acrylate group. This compound combines mannose's lectin-binding properties, PEG's water-soluble nature, and acrylate's reactivity.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 750 Da
Functional Group
Acrylate
Form
Solid or viscous liquid
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Applications
Mannose-PEG-acrylate can be used to optimize hydrogel crosslinking density by modulating acrylate-PEG spacer length in 3D cell culture scaffolds.
