Properties
Description
FA-PEG-mannose, or mannose-PEG-folic acid, is a synthetic conjugate synthesized by linking mannose to a 4 kDa PEG chain with a folic acid group. It merges mannose's targeting, PEG's stealth, and folic acid's recognition potential.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 4 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-folic acid can be used to engineer redox-responsive nanoparticles using lipoic acid’s dithiolane ring system.
