Properties
Description
Also termed mannose-PEG-epoxide (epoxide-PEG-mannose), this research compound is synthesized by coupling mannose with an epoxide group through a 1 kDa PEG linker, combining mannose's dendritic cell binding, PEG's biocompatibility, and epoxide's reactivity.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 1 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-epoxide can be used to create aldehyde-functionalized graphene sheets for biosensor applications.
