Properties
Description
Lentinan-dopamine, termed dopamine-lentinan, forms a progressive biochemical fusion merging the immunomodulatory β-1,3-1,6-glucan lentinan with dopamine. This hybrid entity leverages lentinan's three-coil configuration and cancer-inhibiting potential through thymic-oriented immune response activation.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a β-(1→3)-linked d-glucose backbone with β-(1→6)-glucosyl side branches.
Source
Chemical synthesis
Functional Group
Dopamine
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.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Lentinan-dopamine can be used for its potential to study dopamine-conjugated variants for mussel-inspired surface coating in marine bioadhesion research.
