Properties
Description
This high-purity (≥95%) reagent features dipalmitoyl glycerol (DPG) conjugated to lactosyl via a 350 Da polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacer for studies involving neutral lipid interactions and carbohydrate recognition.
Molecular Weight
PEG 350 Da
Source
Chemical synthesis
Solubility
DPG-PEG-lactosyl is soluble in a wide range of organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, and DMSO, and shows excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
DPG-PEG-lactosyl with PEG 350 Da can be used in biomedical research to develop targeted drug delivery systems and nanocarriers, enhancing solubility and specificity for lactosyl-receptor-expressing cells due to the short PEG linker.
