General description

Poly(oligo(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) (POEGMA) 300 is a family of polymers consisting of a hydrophobic methacrylate backbone and hydrophilic ethylene oxide (EO) side groups with highly branched architecture. The highly branched architecture with a high density of oligo EO moieties enhances the solubility of the polymer in water.

Application

  • Drug delivery- enhances the stability and delivery of siRNA and eliminates PEG antigenicity
  • Biosensor coatings- provides an anti-fouling surface
  • Stimuli-responsive hydrogels for tissue engineering, drug delivery, and other biomedical applications

Features and Benefits

  • Highly branched architecture and high density of oligo ethylene oxide moieties
  • Water soluble
  • Nonfouling and thermo-responsive behaviors
  • Viable alternative to PEG in biological and biomaterial applications
  • Lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior

Storage Class Code

10 - Combustible liquids
