Description
4arm-succinimidyl succinate-PEG is a reagent grade polyPEG linker containing four NHS ester groups. The NHS ester is used to label the primary amines (-NH2) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The hydrophilic polyPEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media.
Applications
4arm-succinimidyl succinate-PEG is ideal for cross-linking applications due to its multiple reactive sites, making it useful in creating stable polymeric networks in drug delivery and biomedical scaffolds.
