Synonyms
PFD-G3-PEG6k-Acetylene, Dendron functionalized PEG acetylene, generation 3, Bis[2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)propanoic acid] PEG, PEG-6000, Bis-MPA poly(ethylene glycol)
Description
Dendrimers and dendrons are symmetrically branched polymer structures that possess a well-defined spatial distribution of functional groups. Dendrimers are chemically modified by attaching poly ethylene glycol (PEG) molecule to increase its solubility and prolong circulation half-life."Clickable groups", such as primary acetylenes, are introduced to the mono dispersed dendritic structures, using "click" chemistry. These acetylene groups, attached to Bis-MPA based dendrons, allow it to form the conjugates with bioactive moieties such as carbohydrate, fluorescent dyes, disaccharides etc.
