DSPE PEG, mPEG-DSPE

Synonym: DSPE PEG2000, mPEG2000 DSPE, Methoxypolyethylene glycol DSPE.

Description:

mPEG DSPE is one of Nanocs phospholipid PEG derivatives that have a DSPE phospholipid attached to one PEG terminus.  DSPE (1,2-Distearoyl-sn-Glycero-3-Phosphoethanolamine) is an 18 C saturated phospholipid with high hydrophobicity. DSPE PEG is a phospholipid PEG conjugate which has both hydrophilicity and hydrophobility. Pegylated phospholipids are excellent liposome formation materials that can be used for drug delivery, gene transfection and vaccine delivery as well. Pegylation of phospholipids significantly improves the blood circulation time and stability for encapsulated drugs. These materials can also be used for targeted drug delivery by modifying their surfaces with targeting ligands such as antibodies, peptides.
