Stearic acid PEG, mPEG-STA

Description:

Stearic acid is an 18 carbon saturated fatty acid lipid with excellent hydrophobicity. PEG modified stearic acid is an excellent amphilphilic polymer with both hydrophilicity and hydrophobility. Pegylated lipids are excellent liposome formation materials that can be used for drug delivery, gene transfection and vaccine delivery as well. These materials can also be used for targeted drug delivery by modifying their surfaces with targeting ligands such as antibodies, peptides.

Physical Properties:

• Off-white/white solid or viscous liquid depends on molecule weight;
• Soluble in regular aqeous solution as well as most organic solvents;

Storage Conditions:

• Store at -20 ⁰C, dessiccated Protect from light. Avoid frequent thaw and freeze.
