Cat. No.: X24-10-WXX04
NHS PEG reagent, PEG-bis-succinimidyl valerate, MW 5,000, Purity 95%
Synonym: NHS PEG reagent; PEG-bis-succinimidyl valerate
Properties
Description
PEG-bis-succinimidyl valerate is a reagent grade commonly used polymer in PEGylation due to its reactivity with amine. Coupling between the compound with amine molecule is often done in slightly alkaline conditions (pH 7.2 to 9) or in physiological conditions.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
PEG-bis-succinimidyl valerate is primarily used as a crosslinking agent in the synthesis of biomaterials and drug delivery systems and facilitates the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of the resulting polymers for applications in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and controlled release formulations.
