Properties
Description
Mannose-PEG-silane, also called silane-PEG-mannose, is a research-specific hybrid synthesized by coupling mannose to a 1 kDa PEG spacer and silane. It exploits mannose's lectin recognition, PEG's stealth effects, and silane's versatility.
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-silane can be used to quantify ligand density effects on dendritic cell activation using mannose-presenting systems.
