Application

DSPE PEG(2000)-N-Cy5 is suitable for use to ensure the proper insertion of folic acid to red blood cells (RBCs) membrane by fluorescence microscopy.

Biochem/physiol Actions

DSPE PEG(2000)-N-Cy5 is used in the preparation of folic acid and Cy5 modified red blood cells (RBCs) vesicles (FRVs). DSPE PEG(2000)-N-Cy5 is used to demonstrate the modification of RBCs membrane with folic acid. After mixing DSPE PEG(2000)-N-Cy5 with RBC, the non-luminous membrane exhibits bright Cy5 fluorescence, enables visualization with fluorescence microscope.
