Properties
Description
Known as glycyrrhetinic acid-PEG-mannose or mannose-PEG-glycyrrhetinic acid, this conjugate is constructed by attaching mannose to glycyrrhetinic acid via a 4 kDa PEG tether, leveraging mannose's immune-binding, PEG's biocompatibility, and glycyrrhetinic acid's reactivity.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 4 kDa
Functional Group
Glycyrrhetinic acid
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-glycyrrhetinic acid can be used to characterize acrylate hydrogel swelling behavior in ionic strength gradients.
