What is Methoxy Linear PEG (mPEG)?

Methoxy linear PEG (mPEG) is a type of PEG that has methoxy (CH3O) groups attached to its linear chain. It includes monofunctional or heterobifunctional mPEG derivatives with various functional groups, such as Amine (NH2), Thiol (SH), Azide (N3), NHS ester, Maleimide (Mal), Carboxylic acid (COOH), Alkyne, Silane, Biotin, DBCO, DSPE, etc. mPEG is a water-soluble and biocompatible high-molecular polymer. It is frequently employed in the domains of medical research, drug release, nanotechnology, cell culture, and new materials because of its special qualities, including low toxicity, non-immunogenicity, and high solubility.

Structural Features of mPEG

Methoxy (CH3O) groups are joined to the end of a linear chain of repeating ethylene glycol units to form the structure of mPEG. mPEG's general formula is HO(CH2CH2O)nCH2CH2OCH3, where n is the number of ethylene glycol units in the chain and varies based on the polymer's molecular weight. The methoxy groups attached to the end of the PEG chain provide steric hindrance and reduce protein adsorption, making it a useful polymer for various biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.

Application Fields of mPEG

The molecular weights of mPEG, which range from a few hundred to several thousand Daltons, can be adjusted to satisfy the demands of various applications. It is frequently employed as a surface modification to lessen the immunogenicity and toxicity of pharmaceuticals as well as to increase their stability, solubility, and bioavailability. In the research on ligands, polypeptide synthesis support, graft polymer compounds, novel materials, functional coatings modified with polyethylene glycol, and other facets of the active compound are examined. In order to avoid biofouling and increase the biocompatibility of medical equipment like implants and catheters, mPEG is also applied as a coating. In order to promote cell adhesion and proliferation, it is also utilized in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Highlights of Our mPEG Products

Because of its numerous benefits, the chemistry of mPEG makes it a valuable and popular polymer for usage in numerous biological and pharmaceutical applications. For instance, mPEG is a perfect polymer for use in a variety of biomedical applications like medication delivery and tissue engineering since it is biocompatible and non-toxic. In addition, mPEG is highly water-soluble, which makes it easy to handle and formulate into different drug delivery systems such as micelles, liposomes, and nanoparticles.
