| Application: | Methoxypolyethylene glycol amine can: • Form dendritic micelles to enhance the solubility of hydrophobic compounds. • Conjugate with an anticancer drug methotrexate (MTX) to form MTX-PEG with potential application as drug carriers. • Couple with polyethylenimine (PEI) to form graft copolymers which can be used as nonviral gene vectors. |
| Other Notes: | Oligomer used to prepare PEG-ylated conjugates having the advantage of reduced immunogenicity and increased serum half life |
