Multi-Arm PEG

• 2-Arm PEG
• 3-Arm PEG
• 4-Arm PEG
• 6-Arm PEG
• 8-Arm PEG

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a versatile polymer that has found numerous applications in various fields, including drug delivery, biotechnology, and materials science. One of the most promising forms of PEG is multi-arm PEG, which is a branched polymer with multiple arms. Multi-arm PEG is an excellent candidate for various applications due to its unique characteristics, such as high water solubility, biocompatibility, and low toxicity. BOC Sciences is a leading supplier of multi-armed PEG and other PEG derivatives. We offer a wide range of multi-armed PEG products with different molecular weights, arm lengths and functional groups. Our multi-arm-PEG products include a variety of functionalized and structured 2-Arm PEGs, 3-Arm PEGs, 4-Arm PEGs, 6-Arm PEGs and 8-Arm PEGs.

Applications of Multi-Arm PEG

Multi-armed PEGs have been widely used in various fields such as drug delivery, tissue engineering, and diagnostic imaging.

Features of Multi-Arm PEG

• Multi-arm PEG is highly water soluble which makes it easy to handle and process.
• Multi-arm PEGs are biocompatible and non-toxic, making them safe for use in biological systems.
• The high molecular weight nature of multi-arm PEG makes it less prone to degradation and increases its stability in the bloodstream.
• A multi-arm PEG has multiple arms, which increases its surface area and allows multiple sites for functionalization.
