mPEG-Thiol

The mPEGn-SH series, featuring mPEG4-SH as a key product, is specifically designed for thiol-based conjugation with maleimide or haloacetyl groups. This enables stable PEGylation of proteins, gold nanoparticles, and surfaces through stable thioether bond formation. Key advantages include high selectivity under mild reaction conditions, tunable PEG length (n), and enhanced stability of resulting conjugates. Special attention should be given to preventing thiol oxidation during storage and handling to maintain optimal reactivity.
