Properties
Description
Also referred to as amino-PEG-mannose or mannose-PEG-NH2, this research molecule is synthesized by coupling mannose with an amino group using a 10 kDa PEG spacer, combining mannose's immune recognition, PEG's hydrophilicity, and amino's activity.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 10 kDa
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-NH2 can be used to engineer aldehyde-functionalized microspheres for covalent antigen coupling in vaccines.
