Properties
Description
PLLA(1k)-PEG(2k)-Mal contains a short PLLA segment (1k), a moderate-length PEG chain (2k), and a maleimide group (-Mal) at the end. Maleimide groups are reactive towards thiol groups, enabling thiol-click chemistry for bioconjugation purposes.
Molecular Weight
PLLA(1 kDa), PEG(2 kDa)
Functional Group 1
Maleimide
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
PLLA(1k)-PEG(2k)-Mal can be used in the formulation of biodegradable microspheres for controlled active molecule release, benefiting from the hydrophilic PEG segment and hydrophobic PLLA segment.
