Properties
Description
This research tool provides a highly pure (≥95%) PLA derivative of lactosyl, connected by a 5 kDa polyethylene glycol (PEG) chain for research on biodegradable carbohydrate-targeting systems.
Molecular Weight
PEG 5 kDa
Source
Chemical synthesis
Solubility
PLA-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
PLA-PEG-lactosyl with PEG 5 kDa is applied in constructing sustained-release formulations for chronic treatment of liver-related conditions, with reduced immunogenicity due to PEGylation.
