Thiol-dPEG®12-acid, product number 10850, is a single molecular weight, discrete-length polyethylene glycol (dPEG®) crosslinking PEGylation reagent. One end of the crosslinker terminates in a sulfhydryl (thiol) group. Propionic acid terminates the opposite end. The thiol end of the molecule forms dative bonds with gold. Moreover, it forms thioether bonds with maleimide and bromoacetate groups and disulfide bonds with other sulfhydryl groups. The propionic acid group reacts with amines to form amide bonds. Alternatively, if it is left unreacted, the propionic acid group provides a negative charge to the conjugated molecule or modified surface.

Quanta BioDesign’s dPEG® PEGylation Reagents

For over 20 years, Quanta BioDesign has designed, developed, and manufactured monodispersed PEGylation reagents. Unlike typical monodispersed PEGylation reagents, at Quanta BioDesign, we synthesize our products from high purity starting materials. All of our products have single molecular weights and discrete chain lengths (hence the tradename “dPEG®“). Even through multiple synthetic steps, our products retain a uniform composition.

Thiol-dPEG®12-acid is a unique crosslinking product from Quanta BioDesign. Hydrophobic crosslinkers trigger aggregation and precipitation in aqueous buffers and lead to non-specific binding. Crosslinkers using dispersed PEG products create analytical complexities that are costly and challenging to overcome. You need a crosslinker that is superior to both hydrophobic crosslinkers and dispersed polymer crosslinkers. You need Thiol-dPEG®12-acid.
