Ref. 3D-KYC75988

Product Information

• Name: Azido-PEG1-methylamine
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Azido-PEG1-methylamine is a heterobifunctional PEG (polyethylene glycol) compound that is commonly used in pegylation processes. It consists of an azide functional group and a methylamine functional group, which makes it ideal for linking other molecules or materials. The azide group can react with alkyne or terminal alkyne groups to form stable triazole linkages through click chemistry, while the amine group can react with carboxylic acids or activated esters to form stable amide bonds. This versatile PEG linker enables the conjugation of various biomolecules, drugs, or nanoparticles to enhance their stability, solubility, and pharmacokinetics. Azido-PEG1-methylamine is widely utilized in the development of PEG-based products for drug delivery systems, diagnostics, imaging agents, and bioconjugation applications. Its high purity and excellent reactivity make it an essential component in the field of PEG chemistry.
