Product Description: m-PEG-thiol (MW 750) modifies DNA thiolation for the synthesis of gold nanorods (AuNRs). Thiolated DNA can be loaded onto AuNR by the mPEG-SH/Tween 20 assisted method (Tween 20 and mPEG-SH repeatedly displace CTAB on the AuNR surface). DNA AuNRs have been widely used in nanostructure assembly, gene therapy, biosensing, and drug delivery.
Applications: Metabolism-protein/nucleotide metabolism
Formula: (C2H4O)nC3H8OS
