Description
General description
18:1 PEG550 PE is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugated phospholipid. PEGylated phospholipids are amphiphilic polymers, The molecular weight and exact mass are averages based on the polydispersity of PEG.
Application
18:1 PEG550 PE is suitable for liposome formation.
Biochem/physiol Actions
18:1 PEG550 PE is known to reduce the random binding of quantum dot tagged proteins to the lipid bilayer in liposomes. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugated phospholipids protect the liposome steriochemistry and are recommended for use in liposome formulation.
Packaging
