DSPE-PEG-SPDP, MW 5,000 is an amphiphilic polyPEG which forms lipid bilayer in water. It can be used to encapsualte therapeutic agents. The core can encapsulate hydrophilic nutrients, such as protein/peptide and mRNA/DNA/siRNA etc. while the lipid bilayer can solubilize hydrophobic drugs, such as doxorubicin, curcumin etc. The SPDP moiety can react with thiol molecule to form a disulfide bond. Reagent grade, for research purpose.
