Thermo Scientific™ CT(PEG)12 Carboxy-PEG-Thiol Compound
Shop All Thermo Scientific ProductsDescription
Thermo Scientific™ Pierce CT(PEG)12, or carboxy-PEG12-thiol, is a carboxyl- and sulfhydryl-terminated compound that contains a 12-unit polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacer and is used to modify surfaces such as quantum dots, monolayers and magnetic particles.
Highlights:
Metal-binding – terminal monodentate thiol reacts spontaneously with gold surfaces through dative binding
Carboxylate – terminal carboxylic acid group allows conjugation to amine-containing affinity ligands using carbodiimide (EDC) and Sulfo-NHS crosslinking chemistry
Polyethylene glycol – PEG groups are flexible, non-immunogenic, hydrophilic, and significantly reduce nonspecific binding of surfaces for protein methods
Spacer arm – 12-unit PEG spacer is nearly 48 angstroms long, minimizing steric hindrance for protein immobilization and binding assays
