General description

18:1 PEG550 PE is a polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugated phospholipid. PEGylated phospholipids are amphiphilic polymers, The molecular weight and exact mass are averages based on the polydispersity of PEG.

Application

18:1 PEG550 PE is suitable for liposome formation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The use of 18:1 PEG550 PE in liposomes reduces the random binding of quantum dot tagged proteins to the lipid bilayer. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) conjugated phospholipids are known to protect the steric nature of liposomes. Hence, they are commonly recommended for use in liposome formulation. PEGylated lipids are used as drug carriers. Use of highly concentrated PEG-lipids makes the possibility of mixed micelles.
